Abstract
A diplexer is disclosed for use in remotely fed intermediate regenerators or repeaters of broad-band transmission systems with coaxial cable sections. The diplexer has a high circulating attenuation at high frequencies. Since sections of the regenerator are at a remote feed potential and are connected to the inner conductor of the feed cable, a plurality of high-voltage stable feed-through capacitors as well as line inductors are required for decoupling the regenerator from noise voltages. In view of a lower expense and simpler structure, a diplexer is provided according to the invention which, at its carrier body, contains a tubular body with a material having a high dielectric constant and corresponding dielectric strength. The stripped feed cable is conducted through its free inside diameter, said tubular body being continuously metallized on the inside and by sections on the outside. It also contains ferrite rings at the outside at sections of the outer tubular body which are free of the metallization. The invention is particularly useful in PCM systems with transmission rates above 500 Mbit/s.
