With low excess loss, high extinction ratio, and excellent optical power handling capabilities, this fused PM fiber splitter finds versatile applications in optical amplifiers, optical sensors, coherent optical systems, and optical testing equipment. Thorlabs' Single Mode 1x8 Fiber Optic Planar Lightwave Circuit (PLC) Splitters allow a user to split a single input signal evenly into eight output signals, which is ideal for passive optical networks (PON) and other high-channel-count applications. In contrast to fused fiber couplers, where light. Optical splitters take an optical signal and split it into two or more outputs and functions like a distribution amplifier. T PON standards such as GPON, XGS-PON and new 25 and 50G standards. The number of available splitting counts are: 1x2, 1x4, 1x8, 1x16, and 1x32. This function enables minimal cross−coupling of optical power between the polarization modes. Download the PLC splitter 1x8 PLC Fiber Splitter PM.
