Overview
The VERSA Splitter Module is a high-density 1x64 PLC (Planar Lightwave Circuit) optical splitter designed for efficient signal distribution in fiber-to-the-x (FTTX) and other PON network architectures. Encased in a durable off-white ABS box with integrated bulkheads, this module is engineered for ease of mounting and organization within telecommunications enclosures.
The module features ruggedized 1.6mm cabling for both input and output, with distinct red input and black output coloring to simplify installation and troubleshooting. Designed for wide environmental compatibility, it provides consistent signal splitting performance across a broad wavelength range and temperature spectrum.
