This high performance Absorptive Low
Pass Filter approximates a 5th order Bessel
Thompson Filter with linear phase and
low return loss extending well beyond
the filter 3 dB bandwidth.
It is intended to be used in high data rate
communication systems requiring noise
bandwidth control and linear phase.
The filter is available at user defined
3 dB points with guaranteed group delay
and return loss performance for
applications up through OC-768 data rates.
