ABSTRACT:
An optical fibre connector or similar entry for an optical fibre cable to an aperture in a enclosure has a metal shell supporting a resilient insert made of an elastomeric polymer loaded with up to about 30% of a material such as carbon particles so that the insert is absorptive of microwave energy at wavelengths similar to the size of the aperture. The faces of the insert have electrically-conductive layers thereon. The optical fibres of the cable are terminated in metal ferrules supported in apertures in the insert.
