Abstract: An insertion box provides a plurality of input and output ports. Each input port corresponds with a predefined and unchanging set of output ports. Insertion of a signal into a particular input port results in that signal being delivered to each of the corresponding output ports. The dissemination functionality is performed by RF circuitry that is typically housed within the insertion box, and is interposed between the input ports and the output ports. The RF circuitry is composed of combiner circuits and splitter circuits. The RF circuitry is designed so that when a combiner is used as an input stage for a splitter, a transformer, usually used to convert an input or output impedance to match a characteristic line impedance, is eliminated. Elimination of such a transformer results in a concomitant reduction in signal loss.

Abstract: A module for containing a circuit is provided that attenuates emitted signals without the use of a cover. The module includes a housing and a receptacle. The housing has a front having a certain thickness and the receptacle is accessible from the front of the housing. The receptacle is shaped to receive a circuit component and forms a waveguide.

Abstract: A module for containing a circuit is provided that improves isolation between ports of the module as well as reduced parasitics and insertion loss. The module includes a housing and a receptacle. The housing has a front and the front has a longitudinal axis. The receptacle is accessible from the front of the housing. The receptacle is shaped to receive a circuit component and has its own longitudinal axis that is at an angle less than ±90 degrees with reference to the longitudinal axis of the front of the housing.
