Planar Waveguide Optical Splitter (1×32)
High-Density Signal Distribution for Large-Scale Networks
The FIBERONE 1×32 Planar Waveguide Optical Splitter is an essential component for high-density fiber optic infrastructures. This professional-grade fiber optic splitter utilizes advanced planar technology and silica waveguides to facilitate the distribution of optical signals from a single source to thirty-two distinct output ports. Designed specifically for the modern Passive Optical Network, it provides the optical characteristics required for consistent and reliable performance. For network engineers managing large-scale fiber deployments, this device is the ideal solution for various high-capacity PON applications. It combines compact sizing with exceptional technical specifications to ensure that every end-point in your network receives a stable signal.
Precision Engineering and Low Insertion Loss
When splitting an optical signal thirty-two ways, maintaining signal integrity is paramount. The 1×32 Planar Waveguide Optical Splitter is engineered to provide high uniformity and a guaranteed low insertion loss of less than 17.5. This level of efficiency is critical because any significant loss at the splitting stage can compromise the overall power budget of a Passive Optical Network. Furthermore, this fiber optic splitter offers high directivity and optical input return loss, both rated at greater than 55 dB, which protects sensitive laser equipment by preventing back-reflections. By ensuring a uniformity of less than 1.7 dB, the device guarantees that each of the 32 channels performs consistently across the entire 1260-1610 nm operating wavelength range. These features make it highly suitable for the most demanding PON applications where quality of service is a top priority.
Rugged Reliability for Challenging Environments
Efficiency and size are key factors in high-density installations. The 1×32 Planar Waveguide Optical Splitter features a low-profile package, measuring 20 mm in width, 80 mm in length, and 6 mm in height. Despite this compact footprint, the fiber optic splitter is remarkably durable, offering excellent environmental stability. It is designed to function in extreme conditions, with an operating temperature range of -40 to +85 °C. This resilience allows for the reliable deployment of a Passive Optical Network in both indoor and outdoor enclosures. To simplify complex cable management, the unit comes with a 350 um input fiber and outputs through four 8-ribbon fibers. For added flexibility during installation, an available break-out kit is also provided. The inclusion of features such as low insertion loss and minimal Polarization Dependent Loss (PDL) of less than -0.2 dB ensures that this device will meet the performance standards of future-proofed PON applications.
