Bare PLC Splitters

Product Overview

NetSource’s Premium Bare PLC Splitters are used for fiber distribution in splice trays for outside plant (OSP) and central office applications. These splitters have splice-only inputs and outputs and are available in 250 µm or 900 µm formats for flexible routing. They support fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) and other access network builds and meet GR-1209 and GR-1221 optical performance requirements.
  • Splitter Configurations: 1×2, 1×4, 1×8, 1×12, 1×16, 1×32, and 1×64 
  • Operating Wavelength: 1260–1650 nm
  • Splitter Type: Planar Lightwave Circuit (PLC)
  • Termination: Bare fiber for direct splicing 
  • Fiber Type: Single-mode G.657A2
  • Input/Output: 250µm or 900µm
  • Standard Fiber Length: 1.5m (optional custom lengths available)
  • Operating Temperature: -40°C to 85°C (-40°F to 185°F) 
  • Storage Temperature: -40°C to 85°C (-40°F to 185°F) 
  • Fiber Protection: Shipped with protective tubing to prevent damage during handling and installation 
  • Compliance: RoHS and REACH
  • GR-1209 and GR-1221 compliant, meeting strict environmental and optical performance standards
  • Compact design optimized for splice tray installation, enabling efficient fiber organization
  • Direct splicing with bare fiber format eliminates connector-related loss for superior optical performance
  • Space-saving design supports efficient fiber management in splice trays and panels
  • Scalable solution supporting diverse network architectures and future expansions
  • Ideal for FTTH, OSP, and central office deployments, providing flexibility, durability, and precision
