CA8PPXX201E-M Series
Band IV/V (UHF) PeakPower+^TM Constant Impedance bandpass filter

Rev : 01.4 | Rev date : 23 Mar 2018

The RFS CA8PPXX201E-M is designed for global filtering applications associated with DTV television transmission. It is an 8-pole balanced filter incorporating two cross couplings to meet all mask requirements.

FEATURES / BENEFITS

Very compact for easy integration into equipment.
Very low insertion loss, (lowest for this size).
Highest power rating for size/class.
Tunable over full UHF band (470 – 862 MHz).
Adjustable bandwidth, available for 6, 7 & 8 MHz channels for global applications.
External coupling adjustment simplifies tuning.
Tunable for ETSI critical, ISDB-T critical or ATSC applications.
-5 to 55 degree ambient temperature operation.
For applications above 20kW, 4 1/2"" IEC connectors are used.
