The present disclosure provides a cavity filter assembly installed with an RF filter having an empty area formed between the RF filter and a cavity filter body serving as a ground to reduce the parasitic capacitance by forming the cavity filter body with a first pocket portion configured to install the RF filter and a second pocket portion within the first pocket portion in a position to overlap a transmission line, thereby reducing the insertion loss of the RF filter, which when serving as a low-pass filter, can position the harmonics in the stopband further away from the cutoff frequency and thus effect improved frequency characteristics of the low-pass filter through improvements of, for example, the frequency characteristics in the stopband.
