June 4th 2013, Small Cells World Summit, London: Mesaplexx announces that xCube 1800 MHz filter reference designs for active antennas, small cells and compact radio systems are now in commercial deployment. The xCube range of filters and duplexers from Mesaplexx offer mobile network vendors high power handling, low insertion loss and high isolation in a light, compact, cool-running format.
Mesaplexx’s patented xCube filter technology uses multimode resonators with optimized performance-enhancing coupling techniques, to deliver performance characteristics associated with far bigger and heavier duplexers. This makes them ideal for carrier-grade small cell deployments and active antennas, which demand high performance in a small, compact and lightweight package.
The xCube 1800 MHz duplexer features very low insertion loss of 1 dB – 2 dB, with isolation in excess of 85 dB. By reducing insertion loss and increasing isolation, capacity and coverage gains of up to 30% can be realised.
xCube technology also reduces unwanted heat in compact radio systems by up to 50%. This, coupled with xCube’s high sensitivity and low insertion loss, ensures base station capacity increases of up to 30% can be achieved.
One of the benefits of the 1800 MHz xCube duplexer is that it can be tailored to meet specific vendor designs and requirements. Peter Young, VP Commercial, Mesaplexx said: “We have already supplied reference designs for our 1800 MHz xCube to several major network equipment vendors. The revolutionary, patented xCube technology, combined with our reference design licensing approach, means that our filters and duplexers can be tailored to individual equipment vendor requirements.
In order to meet their specific needs, we can customize xCube for each frequency band, and even for individual vendor products within any given band. We look forward to announcing availability of the xCube for other frequency bands in the very near future.”
