What is the difference between a passive and an active Microfilter ?
A passive Microfilter only filters when a signal is being sent down the line, whereas active Microfilters have more circuitry and filter all the time. Active Microfilters tend to be more expensive and allow for more devices to be connected at any one time. The only BT approved Microfilters are active filters, although as long as the passive filters comply with BT regulations, these are generally suitable for use.

there thats a fairly non techie overview of what it does
