FotonGuide PLC Splitter Cassette, 2×2 LC/APC

N169.22LCABK

The FotonGuide PLC Splitter Cassette (2×2, LC/APC) is a high-performance, compact optical power distribution module designed for fiber optic networks, data centers, and FTTx applications. Utilizing Planar Lightwave Circuit (PLC) technology, this cassette provides even signal splitting from two input fibers to two output fibers, ensuring low insertion loss, high return loss, and excellent stability. The pre-terminated LC/APC connectors guarantee reliable, low-reflection connections, making this cassette ideal for applications requiring redundant fiber paths or signal duplication. It is designed to fit seamlessly into the FotonGuide Fiber Optic Splitter Chassis (3RU, 19” rack mount) for structured fiber management.
