1. An electrical connector assembly including means for shielding against electro-magnetic interference, the assembly comprising a shell of electrically conductive material including a generally cylindrical back shell having a transverse end face, a cable having a center conductor encircled by a conductive braid shield and received within and extending rearwardly from said back shell, means including an accessory boot of an electrically conductive material for connecting the cable to the back shell, and means for shielding the center conductor against electro-magnetic interference, said shield means characterized by a continuous 360°

  • electrically conductive seal between the cable braid and said back shell and comprising a ferrule of electrically conductive material being electrically connected to the braid, and a cylindrical sleeve of electrically conductive, plastically deformable material being in electrical circuit relation with the ferrule and the back shell, the sleeve having a forward sleeve portion thereof plastically deformed around and longitudinally forward from the transverse end face of the back shell to provide a continuous electrically conductive seal therearound.
