Claim:
1. An electronic device assembly comprising: an electronic device having a mount that includes a mounting opening defined by an interior surface of the mount, the mounting opening being configured to receive mounting hardware therein for mounting the electronic device to a structure, the mount including a flange that extends radially inward from the interior surface into the mounting opening; and an isolator coupled to the mount, the isolator comprising an elastomeric bushing configured to attenuate at least one of shock or vibration exerted on the electronic device, the elastomeric bushing being composed of a fluoro rubber designated as FKM under the ASTM D1418 standard, the elastomeric bushing having an exterior side that defines an outer periphery of the elastomeric bushing, the elastomeric bushing defining a groove that extends radially inward from the exterior side around the outer periphery of the elastomeric bushing, wherein the isolator is incorporated within the mount such that the elastomeric bushing is received into the mounting opening of the mount, the flange of the mount being received within the groove of the elastomeric bushing, the elastomeric bushing within the mounting opening of the mount having a natural frequency of approximately 100 Hz wherein the isolator further comprises a bobbin having a central shaft that extends a distance along a central axis between two bobbin flanges, the elastomeric bushing extending around the central shaft of the bobbin axially between the two bobbin flanges, the elastomeric bushing engaging an elastomer side of each of the bobbin flanges and being compressed between the bobbin flanges, the elastomer side of one of the bobbin flanges extending at an acute angle relative to the central axis, the elastomer side of the other bobbin flange extending at an obtuse angle relative to the central axis, wherein the bobbin is defined by a first bobbin member and a second bobbin member, the first and second bobbin members each including a different one of the bobbin flanges and a corresponding portion of the central shaft, the first and second bobbin members coupled together using at least one of a press-fit, a bonding agent, or threads.
