Benefits of Intermodulation Suppression Panels for Congested Sites
It is common for multiple radio and wireless service providers to share communications sites and cell towers, and this proximity often results in spectrum congestion. Radio frequency interference can originate from a wide number of sources, from natural phenomena such as lightning and sun spots to high power broadcast systems like AM/FM radio and TV transmitters, 2-way radio, paging, cell phones, and emergency and public safety communications systems, power lines, transformers, medical equipment, as well as any device that produces RF energy.

However, the large size of 30 MHz to 960 MHz antennas and radio equipment, and the congestion of many tower sites, often requires the receive antennas to pull double-, or multi-, duty.
