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.

ICE 3000 Series
ICE3001
-
This subsystem is an agile filter for the SATCOM frequency band, capable of acting as either a receive or a transmit filter. It enables simultaneous operation of multiple transceivers in extreme cosite environments. The ICE3001 provides multiple poles of RF selectivity to reduce broadband noise, harmonics, and spurious signals for either receive or transmit applications. This filter is a highly integrated design incorporating complete Built-in-Test capability. The design has been qualified for military applications. A dual-mount tray is also available as an option for easy incorporation on your platform. Cost-effective modifications are available on the ICE3001.

NANO-POLE® Series
-
The NANO-POLE® is designed for optimal size, DC consumption, RF power handling, insertion loss, signal purity and linearity. The NANO-POLE® provides a minimum center frequency step size of 10 MHz typically but can be modified based upon request. The NANO-POLE® requires a +3.0 V supply that typically draws 5 mA when not hopping. The supply voltage should be adequately filtered as noise present on this pin will influence the RF signal purity. The NANO-POLE® uses SPI control interface.

ICE3005
-
The ICE3005 is an agile filter/amplifier cascade for the UHF frequency band with a VHF bypass. It enables simultaneous operation of multiple transceivers in a cosite environment and is factory configured for an ARC-210 interface. This filter/amplifier provides multiple poles of RF selectivity to reduce broadband noise, harmonics, and spurious signals while still providing full output power in transmit mode and excellent selectivity to interfering signals at the transceiver’s RF input in receive mode. All transmit, receive, and bypass switching is incorporated into the two-port design. The ICE3005 also includes a separate audio processor circuit that mitigates popping and drop-outs in the R/T audio that are common in hopping or blanked waveforms. The ICE3005 incorporates extensive Built-in-Test capability and is qualified for military applications. A mounting tray is available for easy incorporation on your platform. Cost-effective modifications are available on the ICE3005. Please contact your sales representative at 513.870.9060 or Support@PoleZero.com for details.

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.

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.
