Opening up the frequency

RF Venue has released the latest additions to its family of bandpass interference filters. These filters reportedly simplify picking the right filters for a geographic area so that customers no longer have to worry about matching frequency blocks to the proper filter. The company’s band-pass filters help eliminate "out of band" signals that can saturate the front end of wireless microphone receivers and can greatly improve dynamic range by reducing noise and third-party interference outside the range of operation. They feature industry-standard BNC connectors and a small 3-inch x 1.75-inch footprint, require no power or user configuration and can be easily connected in-line with wireless microphone antennas to reduce noise and improve wireless system performance.

The 470-608MHz covers all conventional wireless mic frequencies in North America, while the 470-698MHz BPF has been designed for the rest of the world (especially as all the frequency rebalancing is completed over the next couple of years). The additions join the existing filters that cover the 470–530MHz, 470–560MHz, 530–590MHz and 560–608MHz spectrums.
