1. A unitary resonator assembly and mounting structure for use in one of a dielectric resonator filter and a dielectric resonator multiplexer, the one of dielectric resonator filter and dielectric resonator multiplexer having a metallic enclosure, said unitary resonator assembly and mounting structure comprising:

  • (a) a first dielectric resonator;

    (b) a second dielectric resonator;

    (c) at least one bridge for connecting the first and second dielectric resonators;

    (d) the first dielectric resonator, the second dielectric resonator and the at least one bridge being integrally formed within a single piece of dielectric substrate; and

    (e) said mounting structure for mounting the unitary resonator assembly within the metallic enclosure, the mounting structure defining an assembly support indentation and a spacing border, and being formed from a dielectric material having a low dielectric constant, such that the unitary resonator assembly is insulated from the metallic enclosure when mounted in the mounting structure.
