Cable splitter Extralink Splitter 1:4 PLC 900µm 1m without connectors PVC white

Extralink Splitter 1:4 PLC 900µm 1m without connectors PVC white is a passive fiber optic splitter designed to divide a single optical input into four equal outputs. Built on a 1 m length of 900 µm fiber, the splitter uses planar lightwave circuit (PLC) technology to provide symmetrical 1:4 power distribution. The product is housed in a compact steel box with a white PVC outer jacket and ships without connectors for field termination, making it suitable for custom connectorisation or splicing in FTTH, PON and LAN installations.

Advantages

The PLC architecture delivers stable and uniform splitting ratios across a wide wavelength range while keeping insertion loss and polarization dependence low. The 0.9 mm pigtail construction and 1 m length offer flexibility for routing inside patch panels, splice trays and fiber organizers. A compact steel enclosure protects the internal optical element and facilitates mounting in confined spaces. The absence of pre-attached connectors allows precise field termination to match local network standards.

Suitable for

• FTTH (fiber-to-the-home) subscriber distribution
• PON access networks requiring passive splitting
• LAN and campus fiber distribution where multiple outputs are needed
• Splice trays and wall-mounted patch panels with limited space

Key specifications

• Splitter type: PLC planar lightwave circuit, 1 input to 4 outputs
• Fiber diameter: 900 µm (0.9 mm) pigtail
• Cable length: 1 m pigtail
• Housing: compact steel box with PVC jacket, white
• Connector configuration: delivered without connectors for field termination or splicing
• Power distribution: symmetrical 1:4 split

How to use

Prepare the fiber ends for termination or splicing according to local practice and applicable safety procedures. Secure the steel housing in the intended mounting location such as a patch panel, splice tray or wall box. Route the 1 m 900 µm pigtails through available guides and perform fusion splicing or terminate with suitable connectors. Verify optical continuity and loss using an optical power meter or OTDR and complete any strain-relief or cable management to prevent microbending.

Recommendations

Handle the 0.9 mm fibers with care to avoid excessive bending; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius and protect splices with heat-shrink or splice protectors. Install the splitter in a dry, dust-free environment and use appropriate dust caps until final connectorisation. For best network performance, verify split loss and uniformity after installation and document the port assignments for future maintenance.
