BPBR 4/2 / BRBP 4/2
Band-Pass – Band-Reject Filters for the 80 MHz Band
DESCRIPTION
The BPBR 4/2 and the BRBP 4/2 are 2-cavity pass-reject filters, which
pass one frequency or frequency band and reject another in immediate
vicinity of the pass frequency.
The BPBR 4/2 has the reject range on the high side of the pass
frequency and the BRBP 4/2 has the reject range situated on the low
side of the pass frequency.
These filter types can be used to protect a receiver against interference
from a nearby transmitter. The filters are tuned to reject the interfering
signal. BPBR-type filters are applied when the spacing between the
utility signal and the interfering signal is so small, that the slope
steepness of normal band-pass filters or notch filters are not sufficient
enough to provide adequate rejection.
The standard BPBR-filters can be tuned within the complete 4 m-band
with 1.5 to 16 MHz spacing between the operating frequencies.
Insertion loss is below 1.0 dB at spacings between 2 and 16 MHz. At the
narrowest spacing of 1.5 MHz, insertion loss is kept under 1.9 dB.
The filters have very small dimensions owing to the use of high-Q helical
resonators with discrete-component interconnections.
The housing is made of extruded aluminium, the chassis of passivated
steel, and the connectors are provided with teflon insulation. The filters
are black vinyl coated to prevent corrosion.
Careful design and choice of materials ensure reliable operation over a
wide temperature range.
