A RF device such as a tower mounted amplifier (TMA), mast-head amplifier
(MHA), or Tower Mounted Boosters (TMB) includes a housing having a
plurality of cavities and an input and an output, the input being coupled
to the antenna and the output being coupled to a base station. The
housing includes a transmission path holding multiple coaxial resonators.
The housing further includes multiple receive paths including at least
one path having a plurality of cavities, each cavity containing a
dielectric resonator. The metallic transmit resonator nearest the antenna
input is coupled to the first dielectric resonator via a common resonant
wire. The last dielectric resonator in the receive path is coupled to a
first metallic resonator of a downstream clean-up filter via another
common resonant wire.
