Wide Band Filters (multi-octave)
ERF-5W™ Series (Single & Dual)
The new ERF-5W™ filter takes Pole/Zero’s MINI-ERF® technology to a higher level of RF power handling, with 5W (average) in-band power handling, and covering the entire military tactical radio tuning range of 30-520 MHz in one integrated package. This tunability is accomplished by the use of three poles of selectivity, multiple internal tunable filters along with high performance PIN diode RF band select switches. The tunable filters are designed to minimize size and power consumption, while maintaining high RF power handling and linearity characteristics. Serial control is accomplished via a standard Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)-based bus.

Wide Band Filters (multi-octave)
MINI-ERF® Series
The MINI-POLE® Extended Range Series of tunable filters was developed to address applications needing a small, surface mount package with wide tunability. This tunability is accomplished by the use of multiple internal tunable filters along with high performance PIN diode RF band select switches all contained in one housing. The tunable filters are designed to minimize size and power consumption while maintaining high RF power handling and linearity characteristics. Parallel or serial digital interface can be selected by a mode pin for ease of integration into your design.

Wide Band Filters (multi-octave)
HF-ERF™ Series
The HF-ERF™ is an internally switched 3‑band, low cost, miniature, high performance tunable filter. The HF-ERF™ was designed to have the best insertion loss and Q in the smallest package possible, 2.0” x 2.78” x 0.6”. All HF-ERF™ filters are fully tested and aligned by Pole/Zero for convenience and ease of use. Both SPI and Parallel control interfaces are available in one filter. Modified variants are available upon request.

MEGA-POLE® Series
MEGA-POLE™
The MEGA-POLE filter series covers the standard frequency bands within the 30 to 450 MHz range. This new filter series provides excellent selectivity while maintaining very low insertion loss. The product line also has exceptional RF power handling capability with a high third order intercept point. The MEGA-POLE filter series can be used for transmitter applications to reduce power amplifier noise, harmonics and intermodulation products, to provide bi-directional filtering directly at a transceiver’s antenna port, or other applications requiring extremely linear, high power RF bandpass filtering. It has been designed for rugged military environments per MIL-STD-810.

ICE 3000 Series
ICE3009
The ICE3009 subsystem is an agile filter for the VHF-L, VHF-H and UHF frequency bands. It allows operation of a number of transceivers in a cosite environment. The VHF/UHF Filter provides multiple poles of RF selectivity to reduce broadband noise in transmit mode of operation and to reduce interfering signals at the transceiver’s RF input in receive mode at Have Quick II/IIa and SATURN tuning speeds. This design incorporates a flexible control scheme that can be configured at the factory for various radio interfaces (ARC-210, ARC-231, ARINC 429, etc.). The design is highly integrated and includes all filters, amplifiers, power supply, transmit and receive switching (including a bypass mode), and Built-in-Test (BIT). A mounting tray is available as an option for easy incorporation on your platform. This system is qualified for military applications. Cost-effective modifications are available on the ICE3009. Please contact your sales representative at 513.870.9060 or Support@PoleZero.com for details.

Canceler Series
Referenceless Canceler
The ICE2004 is an 8-channel RF Interference canceler system that achieves 40 dB of attenuation without the need for cumbersome reference signals from local transmitters. It is a simple two-port RF assembly that covers the 30 to 512 MHz frequency range. The ICE2004 unit is placed directly between the receiver and its antenna. The ICE2004 enables the reception of low-level RF signals in the presence of up to 8 strong interferers as a result of its inherent low loss path for all non-canceled signals.

ICE 4000 Series
ICE4003
The ICE4003 is a dual channel filter that provides two independent UHF TX/RX channels in a single package. Each channel can operate autonomously into a dedicated antenna or both channels can be combined into a single antenna. Furthermore, the combiner used in the ICE4003 is capable of combining any combination of TX/RX signals while minimizing path loss. Currently, supported radios include the ARC-225 and ARC-210. The ICE4003 is designed with a flexible interface to support future radio requirements, such as JTRS. A mounting tray is available as an option for easy incorporation on your platform. Cost-effective modifications are available on the ICE4003. Please contact your sales representative at 513.870.9060 or Support@PoleZero.com for details.
