Band-Pass/Band-Reject Filters for the 160 MHz Band


DESCRIPTION
The BPBR 2/3… and the BRBP 2/3… are 3-cavity pass-reject filters, which pass one
frequency or frequency band and reject another in immediate vicinity of the pass
frequency.
The filters are delivered in two basic models: The BPBR-types have the reject range on
the high side of the pass frequency and the BRBP-types have 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. Pass-reject-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.
These filters are primarily intended to pass and reject two single frequencies, but the

filters can also be tuned to pass and reject several single frequencies or to having a
certain pass and reject port bandwidth. In these cases, factory-tuning is recommended. Electrical

ORDERING INFORMATION
If pass and reject frequencies are stated when ordering, the filters are delivered factory-
adjusted. Ordering example: BRBP 2/3…, LOW: 149.5 MHz, HIGH: 154.0 MHz. In this
case, further information is not required.

When ordering untuned filters please use the model selection table above to select the
appropriate ordering designation for the desired filter type.
