Signal Sentry™
|
CORCOM's Signal Sentry™ filtered modular jack is a space saving and cost effective solution to RFI problems on signal lines. Its inductive and optional capacitive elements effectively strip common mode noise from the incoming signal, and at the same time limit the signal line's ability to radiate emissions like an antenna. Conventional signal line RFI protection places discrete filtering components on the printed circuit board near the RJ connector. This consumes valuable space, sacrifices performance, and adds unnecessary complexity to the design and procurement processes . A better alternative, the unique CORCOM design provides interference suppression at the optimal location by integrating the filtering into the RJ jack itself. Since the Signal Sentry™ matches the footprint of the unfiltered jack exactly, it is also a retrofittable solution to unforeseen RFI problems. (Shielded versions may require extra holes for the ground tabs). Signal Sentry™ products are useful for any electronic equipment that sends or receives data on unshielded twisted pair or other multi-conductor, cabling systems. Modems, PBX's, LAN, ISDN, and local I/O interfaces that use RJ connectors are all candidates. |
