  • About EMI vent panel shields

    Wire mesh EMI vent panels offer designers new versatility to meet airflow and EMI shielding for a range of applications, including telecommunications hardware equipment, fans, military applications, server racks and shielded rooms. Laird vent panel shields are available in framed and unframed designs, in a range of thicknesses and honeycomb cell sizes to suit your specific EMI, environmental and mechanical system requirements.

    EMI vent panel characteristics:

    • Excellent product rigidity and dent resistance
    • EMI gasket materials compatible with a wide variety of surfaces
    • Foam filters can be added
    • MaxAirâ„¢ vents increases useable air flow area by 10% to 20% compared to framed aluminium vent panels
    • MaxAirâ„¢ vents are half the weight of traditional aluminium honeycomb vent panels
    • Protective grill available for high traffic areas
    • Wide choice of materials and finishes to meet a broad range of shielding effectiveness requirements
    • UL 94 V0 rated versions available for flame resistance
    • Varied mounting configurations to meet environmental and space considerations
    • Can be manually inserted with slide-in motion or by compression fit
