Fiber Optic Splitters

Single-mode Fiber PLC splitter (Planar Lightwave Circuit). These PLC splitters provide a low-cost solution for optical signal distribution in optical networks, with LGX Module types and 19” Rack Mount. Maxcom offers high quality performance, low insertion loss, low PDL, high return loss and excellent uniformity over a wide wavelength range from 1260 nm to 1620 nm, and operate in temperatures ranging from -40ºC to +85ºC. They were developed using silica glass waveguide circuits. Standard connectors are SC/APC, other connector types are optional.

A fiber-optic splitter, also known as a beam splitter, is based on a quartz substrate of an integrated waveguide optical power distribution device, similar to a coaxial cable transmission system. The optical network system uses an optical signal coupled to the branch distribution. The fiber optic splitter is one of the most important passive devices in the optical fiber link. It is an optical fiber tandem device with many input and output terminals, especially applicable to a passive optical network (EPON, GPON, BPON, FTTX, FTTH etc.) to connect the main distribution frame and the terminal equipment and to branch the optical signal.
