How to Select EMI Filters for RF and Telecom Applications
Ensure signal integrity and compliance in wireless and fiber optic systems
Why EMI Filtering Is Crucial in Telecom Equipment
From 5G base stations to fiber transceivers and RF front ends, modern telecom systems operate in high-frequency environments vulnerable to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Uncontrolled EMI can lead to crosstalk, data corruption, or even regulatory non-compliance.
At LCA Mic, we provide compact, high-performance EMI filters for telecom and RF applications to ensure signal clarity and system reliability.
Step 1: Match Filter Type to Frequency Profile
- Low-pass feedthrough capacitors — for power lines in base stations
- Solder-in filters — ideal for miniaturized fiber optic modules
- Screw-type filters — used in telecom test and monitoring systems
Step 2: Consider Insertion Loss and Isolation
High-speed data transmission demands filters with minimal insertion loss but strong EMI suppression from 10 kHz to 1 GHz+. Choose filters with tested attenuation curves and consistent performance over temperature and load changes.
Step 3: Check for Compliance and EMC Testing
- FCC, CE, or ETSI EMC regulations
- Radiated emissions (EN 55032, CISPR 32)
- Conducted emissions testing support
Why Choose LCA Mic for Telecom EMI Filters
- Low ESR and ESL feedthroughs for RF clean power delivery
- Custom filter designs for high-speed optical and wireless interfaces
- ISO 9001-certified and RoHS/REACH compliant manufacturing
- Hermetic sealing options for harsh outdoor conditions
