BPF24-814

Overview

The L-com BPF24-814 is a 2.4 GHz bandpass RF filter designed for indoor applications. It features a center frequency of 2484 MHz with a bandwidth of 22 MHz, supporting 14 channels. The device utilizes an 8-pole cavity design to achieve high Q-factor performance. Key electrical specifications include an insertion loss of 3 dB and a power handling capacity of 50 Watts. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and maintains a 50 Ohm impedance. The unit connects via N-Female connectors on both ends.

Feature Summary

• Rugged aluminum construction for durability
• High Q-factor 8-pole cavity design
• N-Female in-line connector interface

Applications

• 802.11 WLAN systems
• Co-located equipment installations
• Indoor RF signal conditioning

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current documentation to ensure compatibility with required channel configurations and connector types. Confirm that the 50 Watt power handling rating aligns with the intended system load. Check for updated RoHS compliance status and lead times directly with authorized distributors prior to purchase.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 22 MHz bandwidth at 2.4 GHz is required for indoor environments. The 8-pole architecture provides superior selectivity compared to lower-order filters. Ensure the N-Female interface matches existing cabling infrastructure. Consider the thermal operating range if installation occurs in non-climate-controlled spaces.

Part Context

This model belongs to the HyperLink series of indoor bandpass filters from L-com. These components are engineered specifically for Wi-Fi channel filtering in dense deployment scenarios. The series emphasizes mechanical robustness and consistent RF performance across multiple channels within the 2.4 GHz ISM band.

Replacement Considerations

The BPF24-809 is a documented substitute offering similar 2.4 GHz performance but with an 8-channel configuration instead of 14. Verify channel count requirements before substitution. Other models in the BPF24 series may differ in pole count or bandwidth specifications.
