1x16 PLC Mini Optical Fiber Splitter (Steel Pipe Type) Product Detailed Introduction and Features

One.1x16 PLC 

1X16 PLC Mini Optical Fiber Splitter (Steel Pipe Type) It is a high-density optical splitter based on planar optical waveguide (PLC) technology. It is designed to evenly distribute a single input optical signal to sixteen output ports. It adopts a compact steel tube packaging process and has the ability to resist stretching and side pressure. It is suitable for fiber-to-the-home (FTTH), large-scale data centers, fiber-optic sensor networks and complex fiber-optic cable handover scenarios, especially for applications requiring high-density integration and physical protection.

II.1X16 PLC Mini Optical Fiber Splitter (Steel Pipe Type) core features

1. High density spectroscopy
   • The PLC chip realizes 16 channels of uniform splitting, and the output optical power difference (uniformity) is less than or equal to 1.2 dB, ensuring the stability of multi-port signals.
2. Low insertion loss
   • Typical insertion loss: ≤ 13.8 dB (including connectors), optimizing long-distance transmission efficiency.
3. Wide wavelength compatibility
   • Operating wavelength range: 1260-1650nm, support single-mode fiber (G.652D/G.657A/G.657B, etc.).
4. Steel tube package design
   • protective propertyStainless steel or aluminum alloy steel pipe (diameter ≤ 5mm), providing excellent compression and bending resistance.
   • compactness: Length ≤ 150mm, making it easy to deploy in narrow spaces (e.g. cable transfer boxes, pipeline wells).
5. Environmental adaptability
   • Operating temperature: -40 ° C to + 85 ° C, humidity 5% to 95% RH, suitable for indoor and outdoor harsh environments.
   • Compliant with standards: Telcordia GR-1221, RoHS, CE, IEC certification.

Fourth, 1x16 PLC mini fiber optic splitter (steel tube type) typical application scenarios

1. Large-scale FTTH network: A single fiber is divided into 16 households, significantly reducing the cost of backbone fiber.
2. data center backboneSignal shunt between the core router and multiple rows of cabinets to support high-density server access.
3. Optical fiber sensing systemMulti-point and multi-parameter acquisition in long-distance distributed monitoring (e.g. oil and gas pipelines, smart grids).
4. Security monitoring integrationSingle-channel video signals are distributed to multiple monitoring nodes or storage servers.

V. Summary of advantages

• Ultimate IntegrationThe 16-channel splitter is close to the traditional 8-channel product, and the space utilization is increased by 100%.
• High reliability packagingSteel pipe protection against construction or environmental pressure increases fiber survival by 30%.
• Flexible scalabilitySupport cascading or parallel connection to build ultra-large-scale optical networks (e.g. 1x64/1x128).
• cost optimizationPLC large-scale production reduces the cost of a single port, and the cost performance is higher than that of a mechanical beam splitter.

1X16 PLC Mini Optical Fiber Splitter (Steel Pipe Type) By combining the high-density spectroscopy of PLC technology with the physical protection of steel tube packaging, it provides a stable and durable solution for large-scale optical network deployment, especially for space-constrained or harsh environments.
