Abstract
An electronic interface includes a metallic tube that functions as a waveguide below cutoff (WBC). A non-conductive rod inside the metallic tube may be manipulated to engage a connection device to the interface, within a shielded enclosure. The metallic tube defines a locating recess and the non-conductive wand defines a keying/pulling feature to engage the locating recess. The keying/pulling feature may orient the non-conductive wand to facilitate the connection device engaging the interface.
Claims20
An electronic interface comprising:
- a metallic tube;
- an electronic interface element disposed at an interface terminus of the metallic tube;
- a non-conductive rod configured to translate within the metallic tube;
- and
- wherein the non-conductive rod is configured to receive a connection device at an insertion terminus such that the connection device engages the electronic interface element when the non-conductive want is inserted into the metallic tube.
A shielded enclosure comprising:
- an electronic interface disposed at a wall of the shielded enclosure comprising:
- a metallic tube;
- an electronic interface element disposed at an interface terminus of the metallic tube;
- a non-conductive rod configured to translate within the metallic tube;
- and
- wherein the non-conductive rod is configured to receive a connection device at an insertion terminus such that the connection device engages the electronic interface element when the non-conductive want is inserted into the metallic tube.
A device including a HEMP enclosure comprising:
- an electronic interface comprising:
- a metallic tube;
- an electronic interface element disposed at an interface terminus of the metallic tube;
- a non-conductive rod configured to translate within the metallic tube;
- and
- wherein:
- the non-conductive rod is configured to receive a connection device at an insertion terminus such that the connection device engages the electronic interface element when the non-conductive want is inserted into the metallic tube;
- and
- the metallic tube comprises a waveguide below cutoff.
