Divisor de cable Extralink Splitter 1:2 FBT SC/UPC 15:85, 900 µm, 1 m

Extralink Splitter 1:2 FBT SC/UPC 15:85 is an optical cable splitter designed for passive signal division in fiber networks. Built for 900 µm fiber and supplied with a 1 m pigtail, this splitter uses fused biconical taper (FBT) technology to deliver an asymmetric 15:85 power distribution between two outputs. It features SC/UPC connectors on input and outputs, a compact steel tube housing and a thin 0.9 mm pigtail that facilitates installation in fiber organizers and distribution panels. The unit supports operation across the 1260–1620 nm wavelength range and is suitable for simple FTTH or LAN distribution scenarios where an optical signal must be shared without active elements.

Advantages

The Extralink 1:2 FBT splitter offers a compact form factor with a durable steel tube case and minimal insertion loss for its class, enabling reliable passive splitting in short-run distributions. Its 0.9 mm pigtail cable and standard SC/UPC connectors simplify mounting and connection in existing fiber enclosures and trays. As an FBT-based asymmetric splitter with a 15:85 ratio, it allows one port to receive a higher portion of optical power, making it useful where uneven power distribution is required.

Suitable for

• FTTH drop connections and small passive optical networks
• LAN fiber distribution where one branch requires higher signal power
• Patch panels, fiber organizers and compact distribution enclosures
• Repair, test or temporary splitting of optical signals in installations

How to use

Connect the input SC/UPC connector of the Extralink splitter to the upstream optical source or distribution feed and route the two SC/UPC output connectors to the downstream devices or patch panel ports. Secure the 0.9 mm pigtail and steel tube housing within a fiber organizer or splice tray to prevent strain and sharp bends; maintain bend radius according to the fiber standard during routing. Ensure connectors are clean before mating and use appropriate dust caps when idle. No electrical power or configuration is required as the device operates passively.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, install the splitter inside a protected enclosure or splice tray, avoid tight bends or compression of the 0.9 mm pigtail, and use proper cleaning tools for SC/UPC connectors. Choose the 15:85 split ratio when one branch requires higher received power; verify link budget to ensure adequate optical power at endpoints.
