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.
