A loss-impaired filter apparatus for suppressing radio frequency interference on a two-wire line. The apparatus includes a coil unit (10) comprising two coils (e.g. 3a) in the form of printed circuits on either side of an insulating plate (2), a ferrite casing (10a, 10b) surrounding the coil unit (1), there also being two capacitors (15a, 17a, 15b, 17b), the coatings of which are arranged at least practically parallel to the insulating plate (2) on two surfaces of the ferrite elements facing away from each other and facing away from the coil unit (1). Each of the coil conductors is situated directly opposite the other coil conductor along its entire length. The coating (15a, 15b) situated nearest the coil unit (1) in each capacitor is provided with an earth terminal (e.g. 16a) and the other coating (17a, 17b) in each capacitor is connected to the inner end point of the coil (e.g. 3a) situated nearest to the coating. The outer end points of the coils constitute connection poles of the apparatus towards one side of the two-wire line, and the outer capacitor coatings (17a, 17b) connected to the inner end points of the coils constitute the connection poles of the apparatus towards the other side of the two-wire line. The apparatus has low boundary frequency for asymmetric noise signals and high boundary frequency for symmetric useful signals, due to its functioning as a conventional lowpass filter for relatively low frequencies, the filter action of the lowpass filter being eliminated for the useful signals, while for radio frequency signals, it functions as two loss-impaired transmission lines.
A loss-impaired filter apparatus for suppressing radio frequency interference on a two-wire line, characterized in that the apparatus contains a coil unit (1) comprising two coils (3a, 3b) which are formed as printed circuits with a printed conductor going from an inner end point on either side of an insulating plate (2), each of the coil conductors being situated directly opposite the other coil conductor along its entire length, the inner end points of the coils being connected to a first terminal pair of the filter apparatus and the outer end points of the coils being connected to a second terminal pair of the filter apparatus, the apparatus also containing a ferrite casing (10a, 10b) surrounding the coil unit (1), and a pair of parallel-plate capacitors (15a, 17a and 15b, 17b) the plates of which are arranged substantially parallel to the insulating plate (2), one of the pair of parallel-plate capacitors being disposed on one side of the ferrite casing and the other capacitor being disposed on another side of the casing, the two sides of the ferrite casing (10a, 10b) facing away from each other and the coil unit (1), each of the plates (17a, 17b) on the ferrite casing disposed farthest away from the coil unit (1) being connected to its nearest inner end point of the coils (3a, 3b), and the other plates (15a, 15b) in the pair of capacitors being earth terminals.
