In modern optical communication networks, with the rapid development of fiber-optic communication technology, stable transmission and efficient distribution of optical signals have become crucial criteria for network construction. PLC (Planar Lightwave Circuit) optical splitters, due to their high reliability, low insertion loss, and balanced splitting performance, are widely used in FTTx, PON, CATV, and other optical network systems. In these applications, the Rack-Mount PLC Splitter, with its advantages of centralized management, ease of installation, and maintenance, has become the preferred solution for large equipment rooms and core nodes.

Low Insertion Loss Ensures Signal Quality

Insertion loss is a key performance metric for PLC splitters, directly affecting the attenuation of optical signals during the distribution process. Low insertion loss means that optical signals experience minimal loss after passing through the splitter, enabling stable optical power over longer transmission distances. The Rack Mount PLC Splitter we introduced features an insertion loss as low as ≤0.2dB, far below the industry average. This not only reduces the need for signal amplifiers but also effectively lowers overall system energy consumption, providing operators with greater economic benefits and reliability.

High Return Loss Enhances Network Stability

Return loss is a key parameter that measures an optical splitter's ability to suppress signal reflections. High return loss means minimal reflected signals, effectively preventing signal interference. This rack-mount PLC splitter boasts a return loss of ≥55dB, ensuring optical signal clarity and stability within the network. This performance effectively reduces bit error rates and improves network transmission quality, especially in high-speed optical communication systems (such as GPON and EPON).

More Stable Signals, Easier Maintenance

The Rack Mount PLC Splitter features a rack-mount design that allows multiple splitters to be centrally installed in a standard 19-inch cabinet. This layout not only saves equipment room space but also facilitates centralized management and maintenance. The modular design allows technicians to quickly replace or expand splitters, reducing downtime and improving network efficiency. Furthermore, the inherent stability of PLC technology ensures a balanced splitting ratio and minimal temperature drift, ensuring long-term network signal stability.

Wide Application Scenarios

The Rack Mount PLC Splitter is suitable for a variety of optical network construction projects, including FTTx, PON systems, data centers, and cable TV networks. In FTTx applications, it efficiently distributes core optical fiber signals to various user terminals, enabling gigabit high-speed access. In data centers, the rack-mount PLC splitter centrally manages large-capacity fiber connections, improving network scalability. In CATV networks, it provides stable optical distribution, ensuring high-quality signal transmission with low loss.
