Cable splitter Extralink Splitter 1:4 FBT SC/APC 70:10:10:10 2.0mm 1m

The Extralink Splitter 1:4 FBT SC/APC 70:10:10:10 2.0mm 1m is a passive optical device designed to divide one incoming fiber signal into four output channels with asymmetric power distribution. Housed in a durable ABS body and terminated with SC/APC connectors, this splitter uses fused biconical taper (FBT) technology to provide stable splitting for FTTH and other fiber network deployments. The compact 1 m pigtail with a 2.0 mm jacket diameter facilitates handling and routing inside distribution closures and indoor cabinets.

Advantages

The splitter offers low insertion loss for the primary channel and consistent, repeatable split ratios across the outputs. Its ABS casing provides mechanical protection while keeping the unit lightweight and simple to mount. SC/APC connectors ensure reliable physical contact and reduced back reflection, suitable for networks requiring low return loss. The single-piece FBT construction minimizes additional components and contributes to long-term stability.

Suitable for

• FTTH subscriber distribution where one fiber feeds multiple endpoints
• Passive optical networks (PON) and local access networks
• Indoor optical splitters in distribution frames and wall-mounted enclosures
• Signal distribution in telecommunication and data transmission links

Key specifications

• Split ratio: 1 input to 4 outputs with asymmetric distribution (approx. 70:10:10:10)
• Connector type: SC/APC on pigtail ends
• Technology: Fused biconical taper (FBT)
• Cable jacket diameter: 2.0 mm
• Lead length: 1 meter
• Housing material: ABS

How to use

Connect the incoming optical fiber into the splitter input, making sure the SC/APC connector is clean and fully inserted to ensure optimal contact and low back reflection. Route the four pigtail outputs to the destination fibers or patch panel ports, maintaining gentle bends and avoiding tight radii to prevent increased attenuation. Secure the splitter housing within an enclosure or mounting surface to protect the unit from mechanical stress and to maintain stable fiber routing.

Recommendations

Before installation, clean all connector endfaces and verify continuity and loss using appropriate test equipment. Avoid exposing the splitter to prolonged moisture or direct sunlight; install it inside a protected enclosure for best performance. For networks sensitive to power budgeting, account for the asymmetric split ratio when planning link budgets.
