Welcome to FerriShield
For more than 25 years, FerriShield ferrites have been the preferred cable
shielding solution for many of the world’s leading EMI Shielding Distributors,
Sales Representatives and OEM’s. Since acquiring the company in 2006,
Leader Tech has embraced the FerriShield philosophy of maintaining the
world’s largest in-stock selection of bisected and solid core ferrites.
The addition of cable mounted ferrites to Leader Tech’s existing EMI shielding
product line has significantly increased value for our customers. Backed
by unparalleled service and engineering support, Leader Tech now offers
the market’s most reliable selection of board, enclosure and cable shielding
solutions.
Shielded enclosures, even the most robust designs, will permit
electromagnetic energy to enter or exit along the main cabling. FerriShield
Ferrites are one of the most versatile and cost-effective cable shielding
methods available today. Our ferrites attack unwanted RF right on the circuit
wiring, eliminating the need for more costly forms of RFI control. Available
in solid and bisected designs, each style can make the task of regulatory
compliance quicker and less troublesome.
Our bisected styles use FerriShield’s innovative, quick-snap clamshell
enclosures. This unique design concept offers engineers the ultimate in
adaptability and easy installation. The RF absorbing core material interacts
directly with unwanted high-frequency energy and dissipates it effectively
while allowing data signals to pass unimpeded.

Select a mounting option
Each section of this catalog features multiple mounting options for bisected and solid
bead ferrites. FerriShield Ferrites are recognized for their ease of installation and reliable
performance over time.
3
Select the inside diameter of your ferrite
FerriShield Ferrites are designed to fit tight against the cable or wiring bundle that requires
shielding. Ideally, you should select a ferrite with an inside diameter that is slightly less
(+/- .04”) than the outside diameter of your cable.
For quick reference, all part numbers in this catalog have an accompanying technical drawing
and specifications chart that illustrates dimensions and impedance for the selected ferrite.
For a more detailed technical explanation see page 33.
Helpful Tips and Insider Hints
• Ferrite performance typically increases as ferrite volume increases. The larger the
ferrite mass, the better the RF attenuation.
• Smaller cables can be looped through larger ferrites to increase performance.
Impedance increase by the square of the number of loops. For example, by
looping a cable through a ferrite 2 times (2
2
), impedance increases by a factor of 4.

• Attenuation properties by part number can be referenced on page 32
• Maximum recommend cable size by part number can be found on page 33
