Connect Diplexers RF Filters Diplexers Diplexers A diplexer is a 3-port Radio Frequency (RF) filter component which is used in multiband systems. It enables the sharing of a common antenna between two distinct frequency bands in which each band encompasses both transmit and receive functions. This differs from a duplexer which combines the uplink and downlink portions of a single band. CTS has a number of different diplexing technologies. For diplexing of widely separated bands, in which a true low-pass filter (LPF) / high-pass filter (HPF) is required, we have our XCBC family of cross-band combiners. The XCBC products have low insertion loss in a small size, but with power handling up to 6W average / 60W peak power per band. For diplexing of very closely spaced bands, we have our DPX family of diplexers which offer multiplexing of bands which are very difficult to frequency combine. We offer numerous challenging band combinations while sharing a universal footprint. The DPX family supports power handling up to 3W average / 20W peak power per band. These two families (XCBC and DPX) can flexibly be used together to create 3-way and 4-way multiplexers. For high performance diplexers, which in the past would have used air cavity filters, ClearPlex products can be tailored for use in systems requiring up to 50W average / 500W peak input power where smaller size and PCB surface mounting is desired.
