A connector assembly includes a first electrical conductor surrounded by a first electromagnetic shield, and a second electrical conductor electrically connected to the first electrical conductor and surrounded by a second electromagnetic shield. The second electromagnetic shield is formed by a rolled sheet of conductive material and includes a cylindrical trunk and elastically deformable lances that are in mechanical and electrical contact with the first electromagnetic shield. The lances have proximal and distal portions, with the distal portions forming an edge of a flared opening and are separated by slots with a width greater than the sheet thickness. The slots have a bend at their distal portions to prevent another electromagnetic shield from becoming stuck, allowing for secure and reliable connection.
A connector assembly, comprising:
An electromagnetic shield formed from a sheet of conductive material rolled around an axis of revolution, the electromagnetic shield comprising:
