PLC splitter

5. PLC Splitter
Planar lightwave circuit (PLC) splitter is fabricated using silica optical waveguide technology. It features wide operating wavelength range, good channel-to-channel uniformity, high reliability and small size, and is widely used in PON networks to realize optical signal power management.
Surlink provides a whole series of 1xN and 2xN splitters that are tailored for specific applications. All products meet Telcordia 1209 and 1221 reliability requirements and are certified by TLC for network deployment.
