Ridged Evanscent - mode filters

These low-loss, low power, miniature evanescent-mode band-pass or harmonic filters could be used in applications where filter size and weight are critical, primarily for Ku-Band (up to 20GHz) frequencies and bellow. The filter shown bellow is a 9-poles ridged evenescent-mode filter with direct transforming via resonant windows. Shorter and ligher than conventional filters of this type.

Waveguide Band-Pass Cavity Filters

These high-Q, high-power, low-loss filters find numerous applications ranging from wide bandpass filters, up to 20% of the central frequency, to ultra-narrow, less then 1% (notch) filters. These filters are manufactured from aluminum, silver plated. Temperature stable versions, using more stable materials are available. Choice of customer - defined waveguide flanges (choke, cover, hermetic). Optional coaxial interface, customer-defined or standard. The filter shown bellow is WR62 band-pass cavity filter.

Filter C-Band Interference

This uniquely designed low-loss, weather-proved lightweight filter provides suppression of marine and altimeter signal in C-Band. Due to a very low group delay variation, this filter is ideal for digital satellite transmission. Customer-defined pass-band as well as stop-band rejection up to 75dB is available.
The filter shown bellow is 7 poles made from aliminum, silver-plated, weather proved and painted over for reliable outdoor applications.
