  • Patent number: 9154178
    Abstract: A system includes a transmit filter (160) in a transmit path to couple to an antenna (120) and pass signals in a transmit band. A receive filter (155) is disposed in a receive path to couple to the antenna and to the transmit filter to pass signals in a receive band different from the transmit band. An enhanced frequency variable impedance (145) is used to provide isolation between signals in the transmit and receive bands on the receive path. A phase and magnitude controlled feedback path can also be used to cancel transmit signals in the receive path.

  • Patent number: 9142335
    Abstract: The present invention relates to cables made of twisted conductor pairs. More specifically, the present invention relates to twisted pair communication cables for high-speed data communications applications. A twisted pair including at least two conductors extends along a generally longitudinal axis, with an insulation surrounding each of the conductors. The conductors are twisted generally longitudinally along the axis. A cable includes at least two twisted pairs and a filler. At least two of the cables are positioned along generally parallel axes for at least a predefined distance. The cables are configured to efficiently and accurately propagate high-speed data signals by, among other functions, limiting at least a subset of the following: impedance deviations, signal attenuation, and alien crosstalk along the predefined distance.
