Smart Product Development, Think EMC from the Start!
Smart Product Development, Think EMC from the Start! Developing a new electronic product is challenging. There are many components in most devices. These components must work together in a shared electronic environment. This environment must allow all components to function optimally TOGETHER. EMC is obtained by fine tuning the components during development. A coach develops a team, making sure plays work in training before the big game. The coaches work with each player, making sure they can execute their job...

RF Shielded Pouches, stop the Hacks!
RF Shielded Pouches, stop the Hacks! RF Shielded pouches have been used to secure data for years. Police, Diplomatic, and Military agencies use them routinely to securely transport electronic devices. The pouches prevent RF access to the devices by creating a "Faraday Cage" around the device. A Faraday Cage is a metal cage that will block an electromagnetic field from entering the boundaries of the cage. These pouches will block entry of WiFi, 5G, and electromagnetic pulses. Wireless devices utilize electromagnetic...

Robust Conductive Textiles, ready for Rough Conditions!
Robust Conductive Textiles, ready for rough conditions! Conductive textiles have long been used in excellent RF Shielding applications. The difficulty has always been that these conductive textiles are delicate, thin and tear easily. Seaman Corporation from Wooster, Ohio has continuously manufactured durable high performance coated textiles for decades. These coated textiles are used for roofing solutions, architectural structures, tents and tarps for the military, and Geomembranes. The marriage of Conductive Textiles and a Ruggedized Coating to protect them seemed like...

A SCIF Stops Eavesdropping!
A SCIF Stops Eavesdropping! A SCIF Stops Eavesdropping! What is a SCIF? A SCIF (Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility) is a system that completely prevents outside surveillance, spying or eavesdropping. SCIFs allow sensitive information to be viewed and discussed securely. You may think that this condition exists behind closed doors. Not so! Ask any criminal spending time in prison due to legal eavesdropping about it! Legal and illegal eavesdropping often involve sophisticated microphones that transmit conversations. These sensitive conversations are transmitted by...

What is Conductive Velcro? What is Conductive Velcro used for?
What is Conductive Velcro? What is Conductive Velcro and How is it used? Conductive Hook and Loop is the same product that we all know as Velcro, the only difference being is that it is made electrically conductive by coating the small hooks and loops that make it up with a conductive metal. The conductive metal used in Shieldex® Conductive Hook and Loop is 99% pure Silver. Silver is the best metal conductor of electricity. What is Conductive Hook and Loop used...
