Abstract
A device that prevents electromagnetic interference between a portable computer and a docking station, that are electrically connected via interface ports, while the portable computer is used with the docking station may be integrated with a computer system. The computer system may be constructed using a first conduction member that may be made of a conductive metal strip material that is mounted on the docking station while also being grounded to the docking station. A second conduction member that is made of a conductive material is inserted in the bottom side of a portable computer and is also grounded to the portable computer. The first conduction member is electrically connected to the second conduction member while the portable computer is engaged with the docking station. Together, the first and second conduction members join the grounds of the portable computer and the docking station to effectively prevent the leakage of electromagnetic waves between the devices.
