The principal challenge of full speed device EMI compliance is preventing high frequency energy from coupling to the shield. Full speed devices use a shielded cable which requires that the connector shell be tied to the ground plane. It is important to note that a ground plane does not behave like an equipotential surface at high frequencies.

grounding

The most important flaw is that if the shield and circuit ground are isolated from each other via capacitors or ferrite, during a ESD strike, a large potential difference is created between the shield and circuit ground, enabling a ESD strike across them, and causing the device to fail ESD compliance tests.
