RF/EMI Shielded Curtains-Privacy and Separation!
RF/EMI Shielded Curtains-Privacy and Separation! In our lives, we use curtains for privacy, separation, and protection. RFI/EMI Shielded Curtains are used in the same way. RF Shielded curtains are made of conductive metalized textiles. These curtains block the passage of RF and EMI waves. One of the major uses of these curtains is in hospital telemetry areas. They effectively isolate the beds in a "shielded room". This assures that the proper information is transferred...

Non-woven Metalized Fabrics-what are their uses?
Non-woven Metalized Fabrics-what are their uses? The concept of a non-woven metalized fabric is hard to grasp. They are not made by weaving or knitting. They consist of Nylon 6.6 fibers. These fibers are NOT converted to yarns. The fibers are pin bonded together in a three-dimensional matrix. This process yields a uniform fabric with dimensional stability, and high tear and tensile strength. The fabric can be plated with Silver, Copper, Nickel, and Tin. These varied metal platings yield different...

Electronic Data Protection-Buy or DYI!
Electronic Data Protection-Buy or DYI! I've talked about Faraday pouches that protect digital data hacks before. They are security pouches used by government, police, and big business. These pouches prevent data tampering or theft by wireless access. Phones, laptops, and PDAs are protected from wireless access while inside the pouch. These pouches work using the "Faraday Cage Effect" created by metalized textiles. The metalized textiles block passage of electromagnetic fields through pouch walls. This same technology is now available to...

Sensors are very Important. What do they do?
Sensors are very Important. What do they do? Sensors are by definition devices that measure a physical property and records, indicates, or otherwise responds to it. Sensors monitor our health- They monitor our vital signs and alert us to problems. They can be used in hospitals or remotely. They detect the electrical systems of the human body. Brain activity, vital signs, and respiration. Sensors/Electrodes are used in Therapy- TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) helps in nerve therapy. EMS (Electrical Muscle...

RF Shielded Pouches, stop the Hacks!
RF Shielded Pouches, stop the Hacks! RF Shielded pouches have been used to secure data for years. Police, Diplomatic, and Military agencies use them routinely to securely transport electronic devices. The pouches prevent RF access to the devices by creating a "Faraday Cage" around the device. A Faraday Cage is a metal cage that will block an electromagnetic field from entering the boundaries of the cage. These pouches will block entry of WiFi, 5G, and electromagnetic pulses. Wireless devices utilize electromagnetic...

A SCIF Stops Eavesdropping!
A SCIF Stops Eavesdropping!
A SCIF Stops Eavesdropping! What is a SCIF? A SCIF (Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility) is a system that completely prevents outside surveillance, spying or eavesdropping. SCIFs allow sensitive information to be viewed and discussed securely. You may think that this condition exists behind closed doors. Not so! Ask any criminal spending time in prison due to legal eavesdropping about it! Legal and illegal eavesdropping often involve sophisticated microphones that transmit conversations. These sensitive conversations...

RF Shielding Curtains Provide Security, Separation, and Privacy!
RF Shielding Curtains Provide Security, Separation, and Privacy! RF Shielding Curtains provide a reduced ambient environment needed in many different situations. Their uses include medical facilities, assembly line testing stations, isolation of warehouse RF Sensors, and even architectural shielding! They also reduce cross talk between adjacent testing stations, maintaining RF security, and data integrity. These curtains allow in situ aerospace and automotive EMC testing to be accomplished in the low ambient environment required for this type of testing.

What is Conductive Velcro?
What is Conductive Velcro and How is it used? Conductive Hook and Loop is the same product that we all know as Velcro, the only difference being is that it is made electrically conductive by coating the small hooks and loops that make it up with a conductive metal. The conductive metal used in Shieldex® Conductive Hook and Loop is 99% pure Silver. Silver is the best metal conductor of electricity.What is Conductive Hook and Loop used...
