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...

RF Shielding Curtains Provide Security, Separation, and Privacy!
RF Shielding Curtains Provide Security, Separation, and Privacy! RF Shielding Curtains provide a reduced ambient environment needed in many different situations. Their uses include medical facilities, assembly line testing stations, isolation of warehouse RF Sensors, and even architectural shielding! They also reduce cross talk between adjacent testing stations, maintaining RF security, and data integrity. These curtains allow in situ aerospace and automotive EMC testing to be accomplished in the low ambient environment required for this type of testing. RF Shielding Curtains...

Faraday Bags Protect Information!
Faraday Bags Protect Information, what are they and how do they work? Faraday Bags Protect Information. Faraday Bags are bags/pouches fabricated of Metalized Conductive Textiles. When closed, these pouches do not allow electromagnetic fields or waves to cross their boundaries, based on the research of Michael Faraday in 1836. Our electronic devices transfer information wirelessly using RF radiation. When the devices are placed in Faraday Bags/Pouches, RF transmission is blocked by the Faraday Effect. This includes both incoming information and outgoing...

Cable Sleeves Eliminate “RFI Crosstalk”, keeping Data Secure!
Cable Sleeves Eliminate "crosstalk", keeping Data Secure. Cables are the way that information is transferred between computers. Crosstalk refers to electromagnetic interference from one unshielded twisted wire pair to another unshielded twisted wire pair travelling parallel with each other. Electric signals passing through wires create magnetic fields that interact with each other. A wire can be either a "transmitter" or a "receiver" of electromagnetic noise. Both forms of interference/noise affect the data quality negatively. There are two ways of stopping interference...

What is Braided Tube, What is Braided Tube used for?
What is Monofil Braided Tube? Shieldex® Monofil Braided Tube is essentially a "sleeve" used to enclose data cables. Data lines are fed through this flexible sleeve, made of woven individual Polyamide threads, with each thread having been individually coated with silver, which helps to protect them from severe kinks, bends, and abrasion. This lightweight flexible sleeve also provides a protected "electronically shielded environment" for the data cables and the information that is carried through them. This "silver braided cable sleeve" is used...
