A simplified filter structure, and method thereof, for filtering signals received on a network are provided. The present disclosure is directed to a simplified filter structure, arranged as a dual unbalanced cascade diplexer for a plurality of received signals, including satellite, terrestrial, and home networking signals, e.g., Multimedia Over Cable Alliance (MoCA) signals. The simplified filter structure is designed such that signals within a certain predetermined frequency range are passed, while the impedance is matched in the stopband frequency range both above and below the frequency range of the passed signals.
