Abstract: According to one aspect, an integrated antenna and filter unit, IAFU, is provided. The IAFU includes a filter portion including at least one filter configured to filter RF signals to generate filtered RF signals and a plurality of filter pins configured to output filtered RF signals, and an antenna portion securable to the filter portion where the antenna portion includes a PCB including a plurality of conductor traces each mateable with a corresponding one of the plurality of filter pins to electrically couple the plurality of filter pins directly to corresponding ones of the plurality of conductor traces on the PCB, and a plurality of antennas securable to the PCB where the plurality of antennas are electrically coupled to the plurality of conductor traces.

Abstract: An apparatus for providing a connector for a microwave filter port is disclosed. According to one aspect, a subassembly includes a connector having a connector pin, a connector seat having a pass through conduit with a first opening for receiving the connector with the connector pin and a second opening at an opposite end of the pass through conduit, the connector pin protruding from the second opening when the connector is mounted to the connector seat. The subassembly further includes a coupling conductor soldered to the connector pin, where the coupling conductor is configured to be soldered to the connector pin before insertion of the subassembly into a channel of the microwave filter port.

Abstract: Techniques are described for enabling real-time database performance measurement and tuning in a service provider network. To efficiently test one or more proposed configuration changes to a database in a service provider network, a database service is able to create a replicated copy of the database in an environment that mirrors that of the primary database. The database service then automatically causes database traffic destined for the primary database to be routed to both the primary database and the test database. Once the test database is created and traffic is routed to both databases, the database service obtains performance data by monitoring performance of both the primary database and the test database over a period of time. Based on the obtained performance database, the database service can automatically determine which of the primary database and the test database is exhibiting better performance.
