Question for list members: Background: I am troubleshooting a complex integration of military hardware and COTS. One COTS piece of equipment has an RG-58 coaxial connection, but the coax connector is an isolated feedthrough bnc. From a radiated emissions point-of-view, that is hurting us. One of the engineers here said that is part of the spec - Ethernet shields are not supposed to be chassis grounded.
Question: Can someone please explain the reason for that, and how this is usually handled to minimize radiated emissions? Thank you.
