designed to provide attenuation at high angles of incidence for surface wave attenuation.
They are nominally manufactured in the thickness range of 0.010” to 0.125” (0.4mm to
3.2mm).
The elastomeric-based absorbers are available in a variety of choices. All of the parts
utilized in our ABLS product offering utilize our silicone elastomer which has a wide
temperature range (-60
O
F – 350
O
F).
Each of these products offers a UL-V0 rating and is RoHS compliant.
In the ABLS product offering, the absorber material is acting to reduce internal resonances
which often occur at higher frequencies. Although the data listed below shows electrical
performance from 2-18 GHz, the material offers shielding effectiveness from 1-40 GHz.

Reflection Loss (dB)
Standard Surface Mount Shields Two-Piece
Two-piece board level shields offer users the flexibility to inspect or repair shielded
components without having to risk board damage by removing the entire shield or incur
any tooling costs. Covers snap on and off with ease, which makes repair of the component
under the shield quicker and easier and reduces board re-work. Two-piece shields are
available unassembled*, and are designed to survive drop, shock and no-rattle tests.
*Pre-assembly is an option. Consult Sales.
