1610nm + 1×4 Splitter + 4×FWDM Integrated ABS Module
1610nm + 1×4 Splitter + 4×FWDM Integrated ABS Module
Product Overview
The Splitter + 4×FWDM Integrated ABS Module is a customized passive optical assembly that combines a 1×4 equal optical splitter with four FWDM filter channels in a compact ABS package.
According to the internal optical structure, the 1610nm optical path first passes through a wavelength-selective filter and is then divided equally into four branches. Each branch is integrated with an FWDM filter to provide individual COM-A/B/C/D and 1270/1330nm A/B/C/D interfaces.

FAQ
Q1: What is the function of this Splitter + 4×FWDM module?
It combines two passive optical functions in one enclosure: a 1×4 optical power splitter and four FWDM wavelength-selective filters.
Q2: How is the internal optical structure arranged?
The 1610nm path first passes through a filter. The remaining optical path enters a 1×4 equal splitter, which creates four branches. Each branch is then connected to an FWDM filter for the corresponding A, B, C, or D channel.

Yes. The structure diagram specifies 1/4, 25% Equal, meaning the splitter section distributes optical power equally among four branches.
Q4: What wavelengths are supported?
The overall specified operating wavelength range is 1260–1620nm. The module includes dedicated 1610nm and 1270/1330nm wavelength paths. Splitter+4xFWDM in ABS 20241023

Isolation between the 1610nm and 1270/1330nm wavelength paths is specified at >25dB, while reflection isolation is >13dB. Splitter+4xFWDM in ABS 20241023
Q8: Does the module require electrical power?
No. The splitter and FWDM functions are passive optical functions and require no external electrical supply.
Q9: What connectors are used?
The standard configuration in the supplied specification uses LC/UPC connectors. Splitter+4xFWDM in ABS 20241023
Q10: Can other connector types be configured?
The ordering table lists FC/UPC, FC/APC, SC/UPC, SC/APC, LC/UPC, and LC/APC as connector-code options. Splitter+4xFWDM in ABS 20241023

Detailed Product Description
The Splitter + 4×FWDM Integrated ABS Module combines optical power splitting and wavelength-selective filtering within a single compact passive optical assembly.
At the input side, the 1610nm wavelength path is separated by an optical filter. The remaining signal is routed into a 1×4 equal splitter, where the optical power is distributed equally to four branches. Each branch is then connected to an individual FWDM filter, producing four sets of COM and 1270/1330nm wavelength interfaces.
This structure enables simultaneous optical power distribution and wavelength routing without requiring separate splitter and FWDM modules. As a result, the number of discrete components, fiber connections, and installation points within the optical system can be reduced.
The 1270/1330nm branches are specified with insertion loss below 1.0dB, while wavelength isolation between the 1610nm and 1270/1330nm paths exceeds 25dB. The device also provides ripple below 0.5dB, PDL below 0.2dB, return loss above 40dB, and directivity above 50dB. Splitter+4xFWDM in ABS 20241023
The complete optical assembly is packaged in an 80 × 58 × 8mm ABS enclosure with 0.9mm loose-tube fiber leads and LC/UPC connectors.
Application Scenarios
PON Optical Distribution and Monitoring
The integrated structure can be used in passive optical network architectures where optical power must be distributed to multiple branches while a 1610nm wavelength path is separated for monitoring or other wavelength-selective functions.
Broadband Access Network
The module combines several passive optical functions into one package, helping simplify equipment-side fiber routing in broadband access infrastructure.
Integrated CATV / Telecom Optical Systems
Where 1270/1330nm and 1610nm wavelength paths need to coexist within one optical infrastructure, the FWDM filters provide wavelength-selective routing while the splitter distributes the common optical signal to four branches.
