Fibre optic splitter is a network component that distributes incoming light (one or two input fibers) in equal parts towards multiple output fibers (2-64). Splitters are available with 250 µm bare fibers, 900µm buffered fibers and 2.0 mm cords. Input and output cords and fibers can have various lengths and can be terminated by optical connectors. KINGTON fibre optic splitters can be integrated inside several products and/or applications in combination with keen fibre or cable management systems.
All products meet Telcordia 1209 and 1221 reliability requirements and are certified by TLC for network deployment.
Among the many miniature parts which makes up a passive optical PLC splitter, there are three main components which are the fiber array for the input and output, and the chip. The design and assembly of these three component is the key to produce a high quality PLC splitter.
