Electric filtering device

Abstract

An electric filtering device (200) for filtering Repetitive Electrical Impulse Noise (REIN) in a fixed-access telecommunications network (100), the electric filtering device comprising: a REIN filter (210), said REIN filter comprising a first electrical contact (220-1) and a second electrical contact (220-2) for connecting to a telecommunications cable (140) of the fixed-access telecommunications network; an enclosure (230) for enclosing the REIN filter; an input (250-1) and an output (250-2), formed as part of the enclosure, each for receiving a telecommunications cable (140) so as to be connected to the first and the second electrical contacts, thereby to connect the REIN filter to the fixed-access telecommunications network; a coupling formation (260) for coupling the electric filtering device to an external distribution point (130) for a telecommunications cable of the fixed-access telecommunications network.
