Dielectric filter having a plurality of .lambda./4 coaxial dielectric resonators, each resonator having inner and outer conductors and being filled with a dielectric material between its inner and outer conductors, said inner and outer conductors being short-circuited at one end surface of each resonator, wherein a plurality of units are used, each unit comprising the resonator and a first capacitor, one of two conductors of the first capacitor being electrically connected to the inner conductor at the other end surface of the resonator, said units being connected in series so that two neighboring units are electrically connected to each other in such a manner that, in one connection of the neighboring units, the inner conductor at said one end surface of the resonator of one of two neighboring units is electrically connected to the inner conductor at said one end surface of the resonator of the other neighboring unit, whereas, in the other connection, the other conductor of the first capacitor of one of two neighboring units is electrically connected to the inner conductor at said one end surface of the resonator of the other unit, and the outer conductor of each resonator in the neighboring units in relation to said one connection is grounded via the same second capacitor and the outer conductor of each resonator in the unit out of relation to said one connection is grounded via a respective second capacitor.
