Abstract
An apparatus with a line card having a front panel including at least one input/output port. The apparatus further includes a line card interface assembly. The line card interface assembly includes at least one of an input and output line support, at least one guide vane cooperating with said line, and a front face providing an electrical coupling with said front panel sufficient to attenuate electromagnetic waves passing through the front panel.
