A gasket comprises a main portion having first and second ends, a parallel leg extending perpendicularly from each of the first and second ends, and a step portion extending perpendicularly from each of the other end of the legs. The main portion and leg form an opening that is sized and dimensioned to receive a shell of a connector. A layer of nickel plated metalized nylon fabric wrapped over polyurethane foam. One side of the layer bonds to the interior surfaces of the main portion and leg that form the opening and the other side of the layer is adapted to urge against the shell of the HDMI connector. A section of the layer extends beyond the widths of the main and legs. The section is adapted to urge against a faceplate to maintain an electrical-conductive path between the shell of the HDMI connector and the surface of the faceplate.
