Optical splitters are a very important component in fiber optic links, widely used in fields such as fiber optic communication, fiber optic sensing, and fiber optic testing. A “splitter” is a power splitter. A splitter is not a filter like a wavelength division multiplexer (WDM). Rarely, there can be two inputs to provide potential redundancy of route. Unlike active devices (which require power), splitters operate without electricity, relying solely on the physics of. Fiber optic splitter, also referred to as optical splitter, fiber splitter or beam splitter, is an integrated waveguide optical power distribution device that can split an incident light beam into two or more light beams, and vice versa, containing multiple input and output ends. Its primary role is in Passive Optical Networks (PON), which are the foundation of.
