This reduces the electronic magnetic interference and eliminates the possibility of building up any high electric potential that could damage the phone. The shielding is integrated with the dome array and does not require any additional assembly. Since the shielding is soft tooled, it has a low tooling cost and is easy to modify. <\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">P.S<br \/>\nBest Hardware Co., Ltd make used EMI\/ESD in its&#8217; <a title=\"metal dome array\" href=\"http:\/\/www.metal-domes.com\/product-dome-array.htm\" target=\"_blank\">metal dome arrays<\/a>.
