ABS Box Fiber Optic PLC Splitter Industry knowledge

As a leading provider of end-to-end fiber optic solutions, Ningbo Goshining Communication Technology Co., Ltd. specializes in designing and manufacturing high-performance PLC splitters like the ABS Box PLC Fiber Optic Splitter.

ABS Box PLC Fiber Optic Splitter is an optical passive device based on planar light waveguide (PLC) technology, packaged in an ABS (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer) engineering plastic housing. Its core function is to distribute an input optical signal to multiple output ports in a specific ratio (such as 1xN or 2xN) to achieve uniform distribution of optical power. It is a key component in passive optical networks (PON) such as fiber to the home (FTTH) and fiber to the building (FTTB).

1. Structure and packaging
Shell material: ABS engineering plastic. This material has the characteristics of good mechanical strength, light weight, corrosion resistance, environmental stress cracking resistance, excellent insulation performance and high cost-effectiveness.
Internal structure: Contains PLC splitter chip (usually quartz substrate), input/output fiber array (usually bare fiber or connector pigtail) and precision optical alignment and fixing structure.
Packaging: It adopts a box-type design to provide physical protection for the internal optical components, and has installation and fixing points (such as mounting ears and screw holes), which is convenient for installation and fixing in places such as optical cable junction boxes, distribution frames, and splitter boxes.
Port configuration: Common port types include adapter ports (such as SC/APC, SC/UPC, LC/APC, LC/UPC) or fiber pigtails (such as 900μm tight-buffered fiber or 2.0/3.0mm optical cable). Typical splitting ratios are 1x2, 1x4, 1x8, 1x16, 1x32, 1x64, 2x4, 2x8, 2x16, 2x32, 2x64, etc.

2. Core technology: Planar light waveguide (PLC)
Ningbo Goshining utilizes advanced semiconductor processes to fabricate PLC splitters with:
PLC splitters use semiconductor processes (such as photolithography and etching) to make precise optical waveguide paths on quartz substrates.
The input optical signal undergoes multi-level splitting through the waveguide structure to achieve uniform distribution of optical power at multiple output ports.
Compared with the fused-bent tapered (FBT) splitter, PLC technology has the advantages of good splitting uniformity, low wavelength-related loss, wide working bandwidth (covering 1260nm to 1650nm), good channel consistency, high stability, and suitability for high-density splitting (such as 1x32, 1x64).

3. Key performance parameters
All Goshining PLC splitters undergo rigorous testing to meet industry benchmarks:
Operating wavelength: Usually designed for the 1260nm to 1650nm band, compatible with the 1310nm, 1490nm, and 1550nm wavelengths used in PON systems.
Insertion loss: refers to the power attenuation generated after the optical signal passes through the splitter. The typical value increases with the increase of the splitting ratio (for example: 1x8 is about 10.7dB ± 0.8dB, 1x32 is about 17.5dB ± 1.5dB).
Uniformity: refers to the maximum difference in insertion loss between each output port. Typical values are usually less than 1.0dB (for 1xN) or less than 1.5dB (for 2xN).
Polarization-dependent loss: Insertion loss change due to polarization state change. Typical value is less than 0.3dB.
Directivity: The degree to which the signal light of the input port leaks to other input ports. Typical value is greater than 55dB.
Return loss: A parameter that measures the size of the reflected light of the device. When using APC type connector, the typical value is greater than 60dB; when using UPC type connector, the typical value is greater than 50dB.
Operating temperature range: Typically -40°C to +85°C, meeting the requirements of most outdoor and indoor application environments.
Storage temperature range: Typically -40°C to +85°C.

4. Main application scenarios
Fiber to the home/building/node: As a core optical splitter in FTTH/FTTB/FTTC networks, it is deployed at the optical distribution point (such as optical cross-connect box, splitter box, and distribution frame) between the optical line terminal (OLT) and the optical network terminal (ONT/ONU).
Passive optical network: Widely used in standard PON systems such as BPON, GPON, EPON, 10G PON (XG-PON, XGS-PON, 10G-EPON).
Fiber testing: Used to simulate the optical splitting loss in the actual link in laboratory or field testing.
Cable TV network: Transmit RF video signals in hybrid fiber-coaxial networks (HFC).
Distributed antenna system: Used to distribute optical signals to multiple remote antenna units.

5. Precautions for installation and use
Cleaning: Be sure to clean the end face of the fiber connector before installation to avoid dust contamination and additional loss.
Bending radius: Avoid excessive bending of the fiber pigtail or cable, and keep it larger than the minimum bending radius (usually 10-20 times the cable diameter).
Tension: Avoid applying excessive tensile force or side pressure to the pigtail or cable.
Environmental protection: Although the ABS shell has certain protection capabilities, it is still necessary to ensure that the splitter is placed in a sealed, waterproof box when installed outdoors or in harsh environments.
Adapter matching: Ensure that the splitter port adapter type (such as SC, LC) and end face grinding method (such as UPC, APC) are fully matched with the connected fiber jumper.
