In fiber optic networks, sometimes less is more. That’s exactly the case with Bare Fiber PLC Splitters — compact, no-housing components that pack high-precision optical power into the most minimal form factor possible. Whether you’re designing a space-sensitive FTTH deployment or embedding splitters into custom modules, bare fiber PLCs offer clean, flexible integration without compromising performance.
Why Bare Fiber Splitters Are a Favorite Among Field Techs
Not all splitters need an outer shell. Bare fiber PLC splitters strip things down to the essentials — a high-quality PLC chip and premium G657A1 fiber — giving you freedom to configure, splice, and deploy as needed. Their open form makes them easy to fit inside tight splice trays, closure boxes, or customer-specific fiber solutions.
Here’s what makes them stand out:
- Ultra-compact: Ideal for tight spaces and customized integration
- High-precision chip: Ensures accurate splitting across all output ports
- No bulk casing: Reduces weight and cost, simplifies installation
- Flexible handling: Great for OEM packaging or direct field splicing
Versatility by Design
From simple two-way branches to high-density configurations, Fiber-Life offers a wide range of port options:
- 1×2, 1×4, 1×8, 1×16, 1×32, 1×64
- 2×2, 2×4, 2×8, 2×16, 2×32
Each unit comes equipped with bend-resistant G657A1 single-mode fiber, covering the full 1260–1650nm operating range — perfect for PON, CATV, and metro applications.
Real-World Use Cases
Bare fiber PLC splitters aren’t just lab-grade components — they’re made for the field:
- Splice Closures – Easily tucked into fiber splice boxes for FTTH or backbone deployment
- Custom Modules – Used by OEMs for integrated fiber assemblies
- Test Systems – Great for lab setups where flexible routing is key
- Compact Cabinets – Fit perfectly into crowded distribution points without extra bulk
They’re especially handy when you want to minimize clutter but still maintain top-tier signal performance.
Customization Without the Hassle
Fiber-Life lets you tailor your splitter to your needs — whether that’s pigtail length, connector type (SC/LC/FC/ST), or polishing style (UPC/APC). Just drop us a message at sales@fiber-life.com, and we’ll build it to your spec.
In Summary
Bare fiber PLC splitters may look unassuming, but under the hood, they’re precision tools engineered for network performance and deployment flexibility. If you’re building a network where space is at a premium and reliability is non-negotiable, these are the splitters worth having on hand.
