In demanding environments such as aerospace, defense, or embedded systems, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is not optional, it’s a critical requirement.
The connection interface, particularly in through-panel or front-mount configurations, often becomes a vulnerable point where EMI (electromagnetic interference) can occur due to shielding discontinuity between the connector and the chassis.
To tackle this challenge, Nicomatic offers the DSMM: a DMM connector equipped with an integrated flange and EMI gasket.
🔹 The flange is machined as part of the connector body. As a single-piece construction, it ensures optimal mechanical and conductive contact with the panel cutout, strengthening the grounding path.
🔹 The EMI gasket enhances this shielding barrier by improving electrical conductivity between the connector and the chassis.
The result: continuous, effective shielding, directly integrated into the connector, with no need to modify your interface.
DSMM – A Solution for Enhanced EMI Protection
- Reliable Electromagnetic Shielding
DSMM ensures electrical continuity between the connector’s shield and the chassis ground. It acts as a conductive bridge, blockingor diverting interference.
- Direct Mounting with No Modifications
Designed as a standard option, the DSMM integrates seamlessly into your systems, no additional accessories or changes to your existing interface are required.
- Versatility
Compatible with all DMM configurations (signal, power, data, RF), it supports through-panel or front-mount setups for both civil and military applications.
A Key Role in Shielding Performance
The flange also plays a crucial role in EMC protection, especially for panel-mounted systems.
By closing the gap between the connector and the panel cutout, it significantly enhances electromagnetic interference attenuation up to 15 dB.
This performance is measured in accordance with IEEE-STD-299-1997, the standard method for evaluating shielding effectiveness.
Why Choose DSMM?
- Simple Integration: No complex adjustments, DSMM installs with your standard connector setup
- Reduced EMI emissions and susceptibility, even in harsh EMC environments
- DSMM contributes to improved EMI management in systems that must comply with standards such as MIL-STD-461 or DO-160
