Fiber optic splitters (PLC Splitters) are increasingly used in modern fiber-optic communication networks, particularly in FTTH (Fiber-to-the-Home), PON (Passive Optical Network) deployments, and large data centers. As a high-density, standard rack-mountable splitter, the Rack-Mount PLC Splitter, with its compact design and easy management, has become a crucial tool for fiber network operations and maintenance.

Traditional splitters often lack intuitive port identification, which can easily lead to misconnections, causing network signal anomalies and even downtime. The Rack-Mount PLC Splitter utilizes a clear, easily identifiable port identification system. Each input/output port is clearly labeled with a number or color code, significantly reducing the risk of errors during installation and maintenance. For example, during cabling or debugging, operators can quickly locate the corresponding fiber port, eliminating repeated checks or trial and error. This improves efficiency while also ensuring network stability and reliability.

Rack Mount PLC Splitters typically feature a 1U or 2U rack height design, accommodating multiple splitter units. This high-density design not only saves valuable rack space but also facilitates centralized fiber management and maintenance. For large fiber network operators, reducing equipment room space means lower costs while enabling more efficient network capacity expansion.

Rack Mount PLC Splitters are manufactured and tested in strict accordance with Telcordia GR-1209/1221 standards, ensuring mechanical, environmental, and performance reliability. Specifically:

GR-1209

covers reliability testing of fiber optic components under environmental stresses (such as temperature cycling, humidity, and vibration), ensuring stable performance under varying climatic conditions.

GR-1221

focuses on the long-term lifespan and performance consistency of fiber optic components, ensuring that splitters meet specified optical loss, uniformity, and return characteristics over extended operation.

Therefore, the Telcordia-compliant rack-mount PLC splitter can provide long-term, reliable performance in complex fiber network environments, reducing maintenance risks for operators.

The rack-mount PLC splitter has a wide range of applications in fiber optic communication networks, including:

• Fiber-to-the-home (FTTH): It supports passive distribution of core fiber signals to multiple end users, improving fiber network coverage.
• PON networks: It distributes optical signals between the OLT (Optical Line Terminal) and ONU (Optical Network Unit), ensuring network stability.
• Data centers: It enables centralized fiber management in high-density equipment rooms, improving cabling cleanliness and reducing O&M challenges.
