Abstract:
1. An electromagnetic containment module comprising: a metal casing having at least one lateral wall, the wall having an internal face facing an interior of the metal casing, the casing having an open top; a hollow cylinder formed on the internal face of the lateral wall, the hollow cylinder having an axis arranged to be substantially perpendicular to the wall; a metal cover sealing the top of the metal casing, the metal cover having a top surface, a bottom surface and a notch on the bottom surface, wherein the notch forms an indentation having a shape substantially corresponding to the hollow cylinder without appreciable movement when the metal cover seals the metal casing; a printed circuit arranged flat in the bottom of the casing, the printed circuit having one or more edges; and an input/output line having a first end in electrical contact with the printed circuit via one of its edges, the input/output line configured to pass perpendicularly through the wall of the metal casing, wherein the hollow cylinder and notch, when fitted together, electromagnetically contain a portion of the input/output line situated in the containment module between the edge of the printed circuit and the wall of the casing.
