Yes, it utilizes the standard LGX footprint and occupies 0.875 inches of height (1/2RU).
What is the cable jacket size?
The splitter uses 1.6mm jacketed leads for protection and flexibility.
Does it include adapters?
Yes, the input comes with an SC/APC adapter pre-installed.
What wavelength range does this cover?
This device is designed to operate across the 1260nm to 1650nm spectrum.
