First Claim
Patent Images
1. A modular receptacle jack comprising:
- a housing comprising a jack interface and an exterior surface;
a shield extending over at least a portion of said exterior surface, said shield comprising an interior face, an exterior face and signal conductors extending therebetween; and
a plurality of magnetic components coupled to one of said interior face and said exterior face for suppressing EMI/RFI in incoming and outgoing signals transmitted through the signal conductors.

8. A modular receptacle jack, comprising:
-
a housing comprising a jack receptacle and a plurality of signal contacts within said receptacle; and
a shield extending over an outer surface of said housing, said shield comprising a printed circuit board and a plurality of magnetic components coupled to a surface of said printed circuit board for suppressing EMI transmission by said contacts as signals pass from the signal contacts within the housing to an external space and as signals pass from the external space to the signal contacts. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11)

13. A modular receptacle jack comprising:
-
a housing comprising a jack receptacle and a plurality of signal contacts within said receptacle; and
a shield extending over an outer surface of said housing, said shield comprising a printed circuit board having at least one aperture therethrough for passage of a signal conductor, and at least one magnetic component coupled to a surface of said printed circuit board adjacent said aperture for suppressing EMI transmission therethrough thereby providing clean bi-directional communication through said signal contacts while avoiding common impedance coupling of said signal contacts. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
