No, there is no shielding in the digikey adapter.
It seems that in other adapters (maybe only the ones I bought), that the spacing between the side of the adapter and the pins was slightly off.
The slot was large enough to allow the 6 pin cord to fit in and latch, but the off spacing would make the pins not line up causing no comms in either direction.
Try a continuity test between the pins of the 6 pin cord and the cords inside the adapter (or the DB9 pins).
