newsalert.com 03, 1999 09:15 New Filters and Directional Couplers for DAB ORLAND PARK, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 3, 1999--Andrew Corporation's Passive Power division introduced two new filters and a field adjustable coupler series for US and European radio broadcasters. - The S-Band DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) Bandpass Filter is aimed at OEM suppliers for the new US DAB service. This filter is designed for 2.3 GHz for critical and non critical emission masks. The performance of the new filter meets the sharp response characteristics specified for DAB out-of-band emissions as well as providing low insertion loss and VSWR. Precision factory machining extracts the maximum performance capabilities at S-Band from Dual Mode filter technology. - The Low Power VHF DAB Bandpass Filter is for lower power ranges below 500 W and is suitable for European DAB broadcasting. This filter is typically integrated into a DAB transmitter. These low loss DAB filters provide superior power handling from a smaller size unit. Both the S-Band DAB Bandpass filter and the Low Power VHF DAB Bandpass filters offer DAB band tunability, small size, excellent temperature stability and power handling capability. - The new Field Adjustable Directional Coupler is suitable for frequencies of 10 MHz to 2 GHz. Produced in sizes of 1-5/8 inches EIA to 8-3/16 inches EIA, these couplers are designed for a worldwide market and have applications throughout the broadcast spectrum. This new coupler offers an economical, quick, and simple method of installation and adjustment with a directivity in excess of 32 dB.
