Splitter PLC 1X64 LC/APC 1U Rack

1×64 PLC optical splitter with LC/APC connectors and a compact 1U rack-mount design.

Product Introduction

Designed for high-density optical signal distribution in fiber optic networks, the Splitter PLC 1X64 LC/APC 1U Rack provides an efficient solution for distributing one optical input signal into 64 output channels. Based on Planar Lightwave Circuit (PLC) technology, this optical splitter uses a silica glass waveguide structure to achieve stable signal distribution, low insertion loss, and consistent optical performance.

The unit integrates a 1×64 PLC splitter into a standard 1U rack-mount enclosure with dimensions of 440 × 200 × 44 mm. Equipped with LC/APC connectors, it supports convenient installation and connection in fiber distribution frames, optical communication equipment rooms, and data transmission environments.

Manufactured using precision optical alignment and waveguide processing technology, the Splitter PLC 1X64 LC/APC 1U Rack is designed to maintain reliable optical performance across a wide operating wavelength range of 1260–1650 nm. Its compact rack-mounted structure helps simplify fiber management while supporting high-capacity passive optical network deployments.

Key Product Features

1. 1×64 High-Density Optical Distribution

Controlled loss uniformity helps maintain consistent signal distribution across multiple output ports, supporting reliable operation in multi-channel optical networks.

5. Low Polarization Dependent Loss

The 1×64 configuration has a maximum polarization dependent loss of 0.4 dB, helping maintain stable optical performance under different polarization conditions.

6. Wide Operating Wavelength Range

Supports wavelengths from 1260 nm to 1650 nm, providing compatibility with a broad range of optical communication applications.

7. Wide Temperature Adaptability

Designed for operating temperatures from -40°C to +85°C, supporting installation in different environmental conditions.

8. Standard 1U Rack-Mount Design

The 440 × 200 × 44 mm enclosure is designed for standard 19-inch rack installation, helping optimize equipment room space and simplify centralized fiber management.
