Hybrid Combiner (HC) (MTS 2 and MTS 4 Prime Cabinet only)
Rx Splitter (Expansion Cabinet Only)
NOTICE: The Preselector types and Duplexer types used in MTS LiTE and MTS 2 are different
from the types used in MTS 4.
1.7.1.1
Preselector
The Preselector is a bandpass filter, which allows only the receiver signals to pass. The Preselector
incorporates a Receiver Multicoupler (RMC).
For 400 MHz, the filters bandwidth is 5 MHz, and it is designed to block transmitter frequencies as
close as 5 MHz from its band edges.

MTS Frequency Bandwidth Description
260 MHz 6 MHz Designed to block transmitter
frequencies as close as 6 MHz
from its band edges.
400 MHz 5 MHz Designed to block transmitter
frequencies as close as 5 MHz
from its band edges.
800 MHz 19 MHz Designed to block transmitter
frequencies as close as 19
MHz from its band edges.
900 MHz 5 MHz Designed to block transmitter
frequencies as close as 5 MHz
from its band edges.
1.7.1.2
Duplexer
The Duplexer consists of two bandpass filters. One filter allows the transmitter signal to pass, while the
other filter allows the receiver signal to pass.
The Duplexer incorporates both a Receiver Multicoupler (RMC) and a Digital Power Meter (DPM).
The following table describes filter bandwidth depending on the MTS frequency.

MTS Frequency Bandwidth Duplex Spacing
260 MHz 6 MHz Duplex spacing between a
transmitter frequency and the
corresponding receive fre-
quency is 9 MHz.
400 MHz 5 MHz Duplex spacing between a
transmitter frequency and the
corresponding receive fre-
quency is 10 MHz, with the
