Product Description
Optical Power Splitter is a component that splits the optical power
from one optical route into a few different routes according to a cer-
tain allocation ratio.Oplink’s Planar Lightwave Circuit Splitter Product
family provides PLC splitters from 1x4 to 1x64 and 2x4 to 2x32 with
high performance and high reliability.
Excellent IL Uniformity
Compact Size
Telcordia Qualified
RoHS Compliant
Oplink can provide customized designs to meet specialized feature
applications. Also, Oplink offers modular assemblies that integrate
other components to form a full function module.

Notes:
[1] All the parameters are tested at 1310nm&1550nm and room temperature.
[2] All the parameters are without connectors.
[3] Connector IL is 0.2dB/pair for PC&SPC type and 0.4dB/pair for APC type.
[4] For the PLC splitters with connectors, the final RL specification is >=45dB for PC&SPC type and >=50dB for APC type.
