ABSTRACT:
A ground shunt structure for an electrical connector which receives a shielded cable includes a electrically conductive spring encircling an exposed end portion of the cable shielding to make physical and electrical contact therewith. An elongated strip of electrically conductive material extends between the shield and a ground contact of the connector, the end adjacent the shield being held by the spring. The spring can be hooked to the strip or can encircle the strip to embrace it.
