MTB & MXB X-Band Filter Family for Satcom and Radar

Ceramic Monoblock Filters for X-Band Applications.

CTS ceramic dielectric filter technology offers an excellent combination of small footprint, high rejection, low loss, and moderate power handling. Known to be used almost exclusively below 6GHz, CTS has expanded the ceramic dielectric technology to be useful in X Band for radar and satcom applications. Contact us for more information, including customization requests.
