ICE 4000 Series
ICE4003
The ICE4003 is a dual channel filter that provides two independent UHF TX/RX channels in a single package. Each channel can operate autonomously into a dedicated antenna or both channels can be combined into a single antenna. Furthermore, the combiner used in the ICE4003 is capable of combining any combination of TX/RX signals while minimizing path loss. Currently, supported radios include the ARC-225 and ARC-210. The ICE4003 is designed with a flexible interface to support future radio requirements, such as JTRS. A mounting tray is available as an option for easy incorporation on your platform. Cost-effective modifications are available on the ICE4003. Please contact your sales representative at 513.870.9060 or Support@PoleZero.com for details.

Canceler Series
Referenceless Canceler
The ICE2004 is an 8-channel RF Interference canceler system that achieves 40 dB of attenuation without the need for cumbersome reference signals from local transmitters. It is a simple two-port RF assembly that covers the 30 to 512 MHz frequency range. The ICE2004 unit is placed directly between the receiver and its antenna. The ICE2004 enables the reception of low-level RF signals in the presence of up to 8 strong interferers as a result of its inherent low loss path for all non-canceled signals.

ICE 3000 Series
ICE3009
The ICE3009 subsystem is an agile filter for the VHF-L, VHF-H and UHF frequency bands. It allows operation of a number of transceivers in a cosite environment. The VHF/UHF Filter provides multiple poles of RF selectivity to reduce broadband noise in transmit mode of operation and to reduce interfering signals at the transceiver’s RF input in receive mode at Have Quick II/IIa and SATURN tuning speeds. This design incorporates a flexible control scheme that can be configured at the factory for various radio interfaces (ARC-210, ARC-231, ARINC 429, etc.). The design is highly integrated and includes all filters, amplifiers, power supply, transmit and receive switching (including a bypass mode), and Built-in-Test (BIT). A mounting tray is available as an option for easy incorporation on your platform. This system is qualified for military applications. Cost-effective modifications are available on the ICE3009. Please contact your sales representative at 513.870.9060 or Support@PoleZero.com for details.

ICE 3000 Series
ICE3001
This subsystem is an agile filter for the SATCOM frequency band, capable of acting as either a receive or a transmit filter. It enables simultaneous operation of multiple transceivers in extreme cosite environments. The ICE3001 provides multiple poles of RF selectivity to reduce broadband noise, harmonics, and spurious signals for either receive or transmit applications. This filter is a highly integrated design incorporating complete Built-in-Test capability. The design has been qualified for military applications. A dual-mount tray is also available as an option for easy incorporation on your platform. Cost-effective modifications are available on the ICE3001.

Wide Band Filters (multi-octave)
MINI-ERF® Series
The MINI-POLE® Extended Range Series of tunable filters was developed to address applications needing a small, surface mount package with wide tunability. This tunability is accomplished by the use of multiple internal tunable filters along with high performance PIN diode RF band select switches all contained in one housing. The tunable filters are designed to minimize size and power consumption while maintaining high RF power handling and linearity characteristics. Parallel or serial digital interface can be selected by a mode pin for ease of integration into your design.

ICE 3000 Series
ICE3005
The ICE3005 is an agile filter/amplifier cascade for the UHF frequency band with a VHF bypass. It enables simultaneous operation of multiple transceivers in a cosite environment and is factory configured for an ARC-210 interface. This filter/amplifier provides multiple poles of RF selectivity to reduce broadband noise, harmonics, and spurious signals while still providing full output power in transmit mode and excellent selectivity to interfering signals at the transceiver’s RF input in receive mode. All transmit, receive, and bypass switching is incorporated into the two-port design. The ICE3005 also includes a separate audio processor circuit that mitigates popping and drop-outs in the R/T audio that are common in hopping or blanked waveforms. The ICE3005 incorporates extensive Built-in-Test capability and is qualified for military applications. A mounting tray is available for easy incorporation on your platform. Cost-effective modifications are available on the ICE3005. Please contact your sales representative at 513.870.9060 or Support@PoleZero.com for details.

ERF-5W™ Series (Single & Dual)
The new ERF-5W™ filter takes Pole/Zero’s MINI-ERF® technology to a higher level of RF power handling, with 5W (average) in-band power handling, and covering the entire military tactical radio tuning range of 30-520 MHz in one integrated package. This tunability is accomplished by the use of three poles of selectivity, multiple internal tunable filters along with high performance PIN diode RF band select switches. The tunable filters are designed to minimize size and power consumption, while maintaining high RF power handling and linearity characteristics. Serial control is accomplished via a standard Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)-based bus.
