StarShield “Zero Length” Individual Shield Termination Backshell
The Glenair Series 470-013 StarShield “Zero Length” Individual Shield Termination Backshell offers optimal grounding of EMI/EMP braided shielding. The unique StarShield configuration completely eliminates “standing antenna” problems common with pigtail shield termination systems.
The backshell utilizes familiar solder sleeve technology for fast and reliable termination of shielding—even with dissimilar wire types and gauges. The internal configuration of the StarShield features a tapered split-ring that fits snuggly into the conically machined backshell. Tightening the coupling nut in place effects 360° grounding of all conductive surfaces. Standard configurations of the StarShield Backshell include banding and shrink-boot versions.
