Thus, the transfer function of the cascade connection in the
product of the transfer function of the individual two-port
circuit/system
This fact can be extended to three or more two-ports
connected in cascade

Note
The zeros and poles that we have been considering are
all first order terms such as s, 1/s, 1+0.2s, 1/(1+0.2s) and
so forth.
We may extend our analysis to higher order poles and
zeros very easily
A term 1/sn or sn yields a magnitude response that
passes through ω =1 with a slope of -20n dB/decade or
20n dB/decade respectively.
The phase response for 1/sn is a constant angle of (-
90o)n. The phase response for sn is a constant angle of
(90o)n.

Note: We observe that since we now have a pole pair, the magnitude and
phase slopes (-40 dB/decade and -90o/decade) are twice as large as those
of a single pole (-20 dB/decade and -45o/decade).
