Cavity Filters
Compared to other filter types, cavity filters feature low insertion loss, high rejection and steep skirt selectivity, and high power handling capabilities. They are typically bandpass or band reject (notch) filters.

MCV offers a comprehensive range of cavity filters: cavity band pass, band reject, multiplexers, dual duplexers, combline band pass, interdigital, waveguide bandpass and dielectric resonator loaded cavity filters.
FAQ about Cavity Filters
What is a cavity filter and how does it work?
A cavity filter is a type of RF filter that uses one or more resonant cavities to select or reject specific frequency ranges. These filters operate based on the physical dimensions of the cavities, which determine the resonant frequencies. They offer excellent performance in terms of selectivity, low insertion loss, and high power handling.
What applications are cavity filters used in?
Cavity filters are commonly used in telecommunications, military, aerospace, and public safety systems where signal clarity and interference rejection are critical. They are ideal for base stations, repeaters, and high-power RF environments.
What frequency ranges do cavity filters cover?
Cavity filters can be designed to operate from VHF to microwave frequencies, typically from 30 MHz up to several GHz, depending on the application and design specifications.
What are the advantages of using cavity filters?
Cavity filters offer high Q-factor (quality factor), low insertion loss, excellent selectivity, and high power handling. They are also known for their mechanical stability and durability in harsh environments.
Can cavity filters be customized for specific applications?
Yes, cavity filters can be fully customized in terms of frequency range, bandwidth, insertion loss, physical size, and mounting options to meet the specific requirements of different systems and environments.
