Channel Cut-Off Frequency

The filter cut-off frequency, -3 dB, is the point on the frequency response curve where
frequency components of the input signal are passed with 3 dB of attenuation. The
following table shows cut-off frequencies for the supported filters.

All input frequency components at or below the cut-off frequency are passed by the
digital filter with less than 3 dB of attenuation. All frequency components above the cut-
off frequency are increasingly attenuated as shown in Figure 6-2 (Frequency Response).
