Fibtele project input brief
Solution: PLC Fiber Splitter Selection by Ratio & Loss Budget
Solution slug: plc-splitter

Quick answer
Choose a PLC splitter after fixing PON wavelengths, split ratio, topology, package, connector policy and loss budget. Validate maximum insertion loss, uniformity, return loss, directivity and environmental rating for the exact part.

Inputs required before selection
- PON technology, wavelength range and optical class
- Split ratio, stage count and port reserve
- Package, connector and splice method
- Maximum loss, uniformity, return loss and PDL
- Temperature, humidity and installation environment

Selection checklist
- 1x2 to 1x64 or project-specific ratio
- Operating wavelengths and PON class
- Maximum insertion loss and uniformity
- Package, pigtail, connector and fiber length
- Environmental and test-report requirements

Important limits
- Typical loss values are not a substitute for the exact maximum loss of the ordered ratio.
- A splitter cannot be approved without the complete ODN loss budget.
- Confirm connector polish, pigtail length and enclosure compatibility on the controlled drawing.

Ordering note
