FM Bandpass Filters

Rev : 02 | Rev date : 20 Jul 2022

RFS bandpass filters for VHF FM Radio are primarily used in multi-channel combiner systems but can also be used to eliminate spurious emissions and increase isolation between co-sited FM Radio services.
The filters are designed for very high reliability, with sliding contacts for tuning positioned at low current density points.
The filters are easily re-tuned in the field, as all tuning adjustments are external.
 

FEATURES / BENEFITS

  • Invar temperature compensation for stable operation
  • Compact design for Tx powers less than 1 kW
  • Vertically oriented inputs and outputs for simple installation
