FIBCONET has manufactured planar lightwave circuit (PLC) splitters in China since 2008. Our automated lines produce up to 500,000 PLC splitters per month across four package families — from mini steel-tube types used inside FTTH drop closures to cassette plug-in modules deployed in operator central offices.
Every splitter we ship is 100% kupimwa kwa hasara ya kuingizwa on the production line, then verified through high-and-low temperature cycling before packaging. Chips come from a controlled dual supply chain combining domestic Chinese sources (Shijia, Lixin) and Japanese/Korean options (Worriro, IPP) — so we match the cost, lead time and performance profile your project actually needs.
Below are the four PLC splitter families currently shipping to FTTH operators, ODN integrators and telecom distributors across Russia, Latin America, Southeast Asia and the Middle East.

A PLC (mzunguko wa wimbi la mwanga) splitter ni kifaa cha macho tulivu ambacho hugawanya ishara moja inayoingia kwa usawa katika matokeo mengi, bila kuhitaji nguvu. Katika mtandao wa GPON au XG-PON, Wagawanyiko wa PLC hukaa kati ya OLT katika ofisi kuu na hadi 64 wanachama, kutengeneza “point-to-multipoint” usanifu unaofanya nyuzinyuzi hadi nyumbani ziweze kumudu.
| Planar mwanga-wimbi mzunguko splitter | Mgawanyiko wa FBT | |
|---|---|---|
| Teknolojia | Chip ya mwongozo wa wimbi iliyopangwa + safu ya nyuzi | Nyuzi mbili ziliunganishwa na kufungwa pamoja |
| Viwango vya mgawanyiko | Nguvu za 2 (1×2 hadi 1×64), pamoja na uwiano maalum usio na usawa kupitia muundo wa chip | Any ratio: 50/50, 70/30, 90/10, 5/95, 7/93, 12/88 |
| Urefu wa mawimbi | 1260-1650 nm broadband | Nyeti kwa urefu wa mawimbi; bainisha 1310 / 1490 / 1550 nm |
| IL usawa | Inalingana sana katika matokeo yote | Inatofautiana kwa uwiano; uwiano wa asymmetric hutofautiana |
| Gharama kwa hesabu za juu za mgawanyiko | Chini kwa kila pato juu ya 1×8 | Uchumi zaidi ya 1×4 |
| Bora kwa | FTTH, GPON, XG-PON, usambazaji wa nyuzi-nyeusi | Mabomba ya ufuatiliaji, CATV, non-standard ratios |
If you need standard 1×N distribution above 1×4, choose PLC. For asymmetric or non-power-of-2 ratios with few ports, choose FBT.

Note on insertion loss. Our patch-cord line achieves connector IL down to 0.1 dB. This value applies to the connector alone and does not replace the PLC splitter loss budget. PLC IL is governed by the split ratio (see table above), plus a 0.2–0.3 dB connector allowance when connectors are attached.

FIBCONET began as a PLC splitter factory in 1994, six years before the first commercial GPON deployment. That head start let us build the supply-chain relationships and in-house tooling — housing moulds, alignment jigs, potting recipes — that most fibre passives vendors still buy in from third parties.
Combined monthly output across all PLC package types reaches approximately 1,000,000 units per month, on automated alignment lines where a single operator runs two machines in parallel.
The PLC chip drives 60–70% of the finished splitter’s optical performance. We keep two supply channels active in parallel: domestic chips (Shijia, Lixin) as our default choice for cost, muda wa mwanzo na upatikanaji wa uzalishaji - mavuno ya Shijia ya kizazi cha sasa yanalingana na ubora wa uagizaji - na chipsi kutoka nje (Worriro Japani, IPP Korea) kwa wateja wanaobainisha asili au ulinganifu mkubwa wa IL. Kwa sababu pia tunashikilia nafasi za mikataba juu ya mkondo katika safu ya nyuzi (FA) na usambazaji wa feri, usawa wetu wa IL unashikilia batches bila pembejeo-jiometri drift.

Ripoti za majaribio ya watu wengine (kielektroniki, iliyopigwa muhuri) inapatikana kwa ombi.

Kaseti ya uwiano wa kawaida na vigawanyiko vya kisanduku vya PLC huanza kutoka chache 2 vitengo - sampuli na maagizo ya majaribio yanakaribishwa. Mini and ABS box regular ratios ship from stock. Long-term partners can negotiate consignment or blanket terms. Silk-screen branded steel tubes require an MOQ of 1,000 pieces at no extra cost.
Regular ratios in standard packages are held in stock and ship within days. For a 5,000-piece 1×8 mini PLC order the typical lead time is around 20 days from PO, including approximately one week for raw material staging. Urgent orders can be prioritized on the production schedule; please flag urgency at RFQ stage.
Ndiyo. All uneven ratios including 1:3, 1:9, 2:8, 3:7 na 5:95 zinaungwa mkono, along with 2×N configurations. Insertion loss and uniformity meet industry standards; send us the required ratio, pigtail length and connector type and we will confirm specification, price and lead time.
Our PLC splitters are designed and tested to match the reliability methodology defined in Telcordia GR-1209 (passive branching components) and GR-1221 (reliability qualification). Full test reports from accredited third-party labs can be arranged for project bids.
Ndiyo. Tunatengeneza kwa mchoro wako - masanduku maalum ya rangi, outer carton logo, private-label stickers, ingizo maalum za karatasi na miongozo yenye chapa. Full OEM/ODM support is standard.
Kiwango cha udhamini wa kiwanda ni 1 year against manufacturing defect. Design service life is 10 years or longer for mini PLC and 25 years or longer for cassette / box PLC, based on our accelerated ageing test data.
We default to G.657.A1 (10 mm kipenyo cha chini cha bend) rather than G.652.D (15 mm kipenyo cha chini cha bend), because the tight coiling inside splitter housings will cause additional loss or even fibre breakage with G.652.D. G.657.A2 (7.5 mm kipenyo cha chini cha bend) is available for the most compact form factors or drop-cable integration.
Ndiyo. Insertion loss test videos, optional 3D end-face inspection videos and stamped third-party test reports are available on request. Video content can be customized to buyer inspection protocols.
Ndiyo. We currently ship to operators, integrators and distributors across all four regions. LGX modules with the Russia-market mould are a stocked variant. Tafadhali shauri Incoterms na bandari lengwa katika hatua ya RFQ - Upembuzi yakinifu wa DDP unaweza kutathminiwa kwa maeneo yaliyochaguliwa.
