Optical Splitter 1x16 SC/APC OSP Package with 2mm Jacketed Leads

Overview

The Optical Splitter in an OSP cassette is designed to address the environmental challenges of outside plant deployments. By utilizing an integrated OSP protection package, this device provides enhanced fiber security and durability for installations in harsh or outdoor environments.

This PLC-based splitter is engineered to maximize space efficiency within cabinets and enclosures. The unit features 2mm jacketed leads, ensuring robust fiber protection during the installation process, making it a functional choice for telecommunications contractors and network operators performing FTTx deployments.

Key Features

• OSP Hardened Package
  Designed for outside plant conditions, providing an enclosed housing that protects internal fiber from external environmental stressors.
• 1x16 Split Ratio
  Offers precise signal distribution, enabling the connection of up to 16 downstream network paths from a single input fiber.
• SC/APC Connectors
  Equipped with industry-standard angled physical contact connectors to minimize back-reflection in sensitive optical networks.
• 2mm Jacketed Leads
  Features ruggedized 2mm diameter cable leads to provide increased strain relief and mechanical protection compared to bare fiber.
• Wide Operating Wavelength
  Supports a broad operational range from 1260nm to 1650nm, ensuring compatibility with standard singlemode passive optical networks.
• Compact Footprint
  Utilizes a 100mm x 80mm x 10mm cassette design that optimizes limited space within cabinets and splice closures.

Applications

• FTTH/FTTx networks
• Passive Optical Networks (PON)
• Outside plant cabinet installations
• Fiber distribution hubs
