Abstract

See full text

An F connector coupled to a transmission line applies a radio frequency (RF) signal to an RF input of a filter of a set-top box via an impedance matching network that includes a first inductor and a second inductor that are coupled in series. A capacitor and a third inductor are coupled in parallel between a discharge tube and a junction terminal that is interposed between the series coupled inductors for protecting electronic components such as the filter from a voltage surge developed in the transmission line.
