Installing the EMI Gaskets

The material for the EMI (Electro-Magnetic Interference) gaskets is provided in two lengths for the two different
sizes of patch panel openings in the MX5000:
EMI Gasket Material Length
To install the EMI gaskets, do the following:
1. Make sure the groove surrounding each panel opening is free of dust, dirt or liquid.
2. Inspect each gasket for signs of twisting, cracking, wear or damage. If the gaskets need to be replaced, cut
and discard the them.
IMPORTANT!
• Do not stretch the gasket material. Stretching the gasket material will degrade performance. If
gasket material is inadvertently stretched, remove it from the patch panel groove and allow it to
sit for 8 hours before attempting to install it again. The material will return to its original length.
• Do not cut the gasket to length before assembly.
