Overview
The VERSA Splitter Module is a 1x32 PLC (Planar Lightwave Circuit) component designed for high-density fiber distribution networks. Housed in an off-white ABS box with integrated bulkheads, this module is engineered to manage optical signals efficiently in outside plant or rack-mounted environments. It provides a standardized solution for splitting single-mode fiber signals across multiple endpoints.
This module features 1.6mm ruggedized input and output tails for enhanced durability during installation and routing. The unit includes pre-terminated SC/APC connectors, ensuring low-reflectance performance and compatibility with standard network interfaces. Its construction is optimized for wide temperature ranges and high humidity, making it suitable for demanding operational environments.
Key Features
