Shielded vs unshielded connectorsA shield only improves electromagnetic compatibility when it is continuous from cable to housing to panel, with low impedance at the frequencies that matter. This article explains how foil and braid shields work, what transfer impedance measures, why 360° termination outperforms pigtails, how to approach shield grounding, and when an unshielded connection is the better engineering choice. - 02

Connector solutions for medical equipmentConnectors in medical electrical equipment form part of the means of protection that IEC 60601-1 requires, and they must survive daily cleaning, repeated mating and, in some cases, sterilisation. This note covers insulation and spacing, mis-mating prevention, chemical resistance, biocompatibility and the documentation a device maker needs from its interconnect supply chain. - 03

Cable assembly design considerationsA cable assembly is a small system: conductors, insulation, jacket, shielding, terminations, connectors and strain relief that must work together for the life of the equipment. This guide covers requirements capture, material and termination choices, testing and the documentation that makes an assembly reproducible.
