90dB is highly optimistic. 40 dB would be more typical (but still
adequate), and maybe a bit less at 2GHz.
 
If they do mean 90dB, it's probably the screening factor (a measure of
signal leakage and ingress). 90dB would be good.

Could be 90dB/Hz?

Just found this one with google. It has 90dB RFI shielding:

Now it makes sense

I have a Tiawanese manual lathe with a 3 phase 3hp motor. I run my
shop on a phase converter. I have a CNC lathe with a 15hp spindle and
a CNC mill with a 10hp spindle. Other machines too but it's these 3
that make me wonder. When the CNC lathe spindle is starting it starts
fast. Bang! The mill also starts fast, but not quite as fast. Both of
these machines can start at the same time with no problems. Even when
the chuck is on the lathe. The chuck wieghs about 50 lbs. so it is a
lot of inertia to spin up. But if I start the 3hp lathe at the same
time as the CNC lathe it sometimes faults the spindle drive on the CNC
and it shuts off. The crappy little motor never runs hot enough to
smell, and I've had the machine for about 20 years. It does run rough
though and always strains to start. When starting the manual lathe in
the highest gear it takes longer to spin up to 1150 rpm than the CNC
lathe takes to spin up to 5000 rpm with the 50 lb. chuck. So what
could make this motor draw so much current?
Thanks,
Eric

I had a big blower motor that would spin as easy and free as a child's pinwheel in a gentle breeze, but virtually lock up when AC was applied. It would howl and struggle to build RPMs. Even after AC was cut, it was still stiff until I turned it over several times when it relaxed. And it wasn't heat either - I could switch on the motor for a split second, and it stiffened right up. There was no end play, but it had bad bearings..

The original fault was due to a fan speed control circuit
failure, shorting a low-power secondary transformer winding.
 
This would have been simply repairable, with a separate
properly-sized primary fuse for the transformer.
 
It would not have occurred, unattended, with a proper line
power switch.
