Shielding Performance
BlocCotton provides 45 to 54 dB of shielding from 30 MHz to 10 GHz. That is 52.6 dB at 915 MHz (cell), 51 dB at 2.45 GHz (2.4 GHz WiFi) and 49.5 dB at 5 GHz (5 GHz WiFi), peaking at 53.8 dB at 300 MHz and easing to 45.2 dB at 10 GHz. Decibels are a logarithmic scale: every 10 dB is a tenfold reduction in signal power, so 50 dB means 99.999% of the signal power at that frequency is blocked. See the Specifications tab for the full table.
The Fabric Behind Our BlocCotton Sleeping Bags
Our BlocCotton sleeping bags are made from this fabric. If you are making your own shielding projects, you can buy the same fabric by the length.
Lightweight, Breathable and Washable
Blending silver fiber with cotton gives BlocCotton a lightweight, breathable feel, and the cotton twill weave is strong and robust. It is washable, and lasts beyond 40 washes.
