Fiber Optic Splitters

Our Fiber Optic Splitters are essential components in fiber optic networks, providing efficient solutions for signal distribution. Using PLC (Planar Lightwave Circuit) technology, these splitters enable you to divide a single fiber into multiple output fibers without loss of performance. These high-quality devices are ideal for applications like PONs (Passive Optical Networks), including EPON, GPON, FTTX, and more. Available in a variety of configurations, including 1X4, 1X8, and 1X16 splits, our fiber optic splitters are designed for reliable, high-performance fiber optic networks. The SC/APC and LC/APC connectors are precision-polished to minimize loss, ensuring consistent signal transmission.

These splitters are suitable for installation in LGX and CGX cassette formats, allowing for easy integration into your network infrastructure. Whether you're expanding a fiber optic network, connecting bi-directional SFP transceivers, or simply optimizing signal distribution, our fiber optic splitters provide the right solution.

  • Mini and Cassette Options: Mini-splitters in 0.9mm for compact installations or LGX/CGX cassette splitters for more robust setups.

  • Length: For mini-splitters, lengths are 1 meter. For cassette splitters, these products fit in LGX and CGX cassettes for ease of deployment.

Common Uses for Fiber Optic Splitters

  • PON Networks: Ideal for EPON, GPON, and FTTX applications, where one fiber needs to be split to multiple end points.

  • Data Centers: Perfect for high-density environments requiring signal distribution to multiple connections without compromising performance.

  • Telecommunications: Used for expanding network infrastructure and ensuring efficient signal distribution in telecommunications systems.

  • Broadband and Internet Service Providers: Essential for creating connections between central office equipment and residential or business customers, especially in fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) or fiber-to-the-building (FTTB) scenarios.

FAQ:

What is a PLC splitter and how does it work?

A PLC (Planar Lightwave Circuit) splitter uses lightwave technology to split a single fiber signal into multiple signals. It ensures that the light is distributed evenly among the output fibers, making it ideal for large-scale fiber optic networks like PONs.

How can I integrate these splitters into my existing network?

These fiber optic splitters are designed to be easily integrated into your network infrastructure. Depending on your requirements, they can be installed into LGX or CGX cassettes, which are compatible with most fiber optic enclosures.

What is the difference between the SC/APC and LC/APC connectors?

The SC/APC connectors are larger and designed for higher-density connections, while LC/APC connectors are smaller and more compact, ideal for environments with limited space. Both feature APC (Angled Physical Contact) polishing to minimize return loss and improve overall network performance.

Can I customize the length or configuration of these splitters?

The stock fiber optic splitters available on this page are pre-configured with fixed split ratios and lengths. For custom lengths or configurations, please explore our custom fiber optic products for a solution tailored to your needs.
