Passive optical split for GPON

A fiber splitter is a passive device that divides one incoming optical signal into several outgoing ones, with no power needed. In a GPON network, splitters let a single fiber from the central equipment serve many customers.
FDT Splitters

PLC splitters in common ratios and formats.

One fiber serves many customers. Compact PLC splitters for closures, cassettes, boxes, and rack mounts, connectorized or bare.

Typical Uses

Where these products are used.

  • 01First and second-level splitting in GPON networks
  • 02Inside FDT cabinets, FATs, and distribution boxes

What It Fits

Match to equipment and site.

Split ratio

Higher ratios serve more customers but add more signal loss.

Cascading

Networks may use two splitting stages; total loss must stay within system limits.

Connectors

Match connector and polish type, commonly APC in GPON.

Enclosures

Choose a format that fits the FDT, FAT, or ODF.

Fiber type

Single-mode for GPON.

How to Choose

Decisions that get the choice right.

01

Customer count

Pick a ratio that serves your target customers.

02

Loss budget

Total splitter plus cable and connector loss must stay within equipment limits.

03

Form factor

Match to the enclosure.

04

Connector type

Match to your network standard.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions

Why does a higher split ratio mean weaker signal?

The light is divided among more outputs, so each receives less. Loss rises roughly with each doubling of the ratio.

Can I use more than one splitter in a path?

Yes. Many networks use two stages, but total loss must be planned carefully.

Do splitters need power?

No. They are passive.
