This depends. The MRT/FRK types are not that well shielded,
but still better than modern telecom grade types. If you
have a well designed switcher, then that should not be a
problem. If you bought one of the many switcher on ebay/aliexpress,
then I would not trust those... They are horribly designed,
violating the layout rules in the datasheet (and those are
already not up to time-nuts/noise-nuts standards). There are
some 78xx replacments from reputable manufacturers (Murata, etc).
Those should be good enough for that need. Still I would not place
them close to the MRT, if possible.
