Help needed with filter setup for reducer/camera

Hello. I have pretty much decided to get an optolong enhance or extreme, with a preference for the extreme. The extreme only comes in 2".

Below are images of my reducer, including a screenshot of the product description. I don't see how to attach the filter to this?

The M48 thread is apparently 2" (48mm equals 2" huh?!?), but if I screw a filter to the T-ring, that will ruin my back focus right?

There are some threads INSIDE the reducer behind the lens, but I have no idea what type or size. And the only access to those is through the T-ring adapter hole in the end which is NARROWER. So the filter won't fit in that way - if it even would have.
Or am I supposed to remove the end piece, thread a filter in, and put the end piece back on...?

As you can see, I'm not sure what to do here.
A clip in is possible, but they are more expensive again, and only available for the enhance.

Maybe I'm missing something obvious here, but your help is much appreciated.
