Optical splitters can be classified into two types based on the splitting principle: fused biconical taper (FBT Coupler Splitters) and planar lightwave circuit (PLC Splitters). The FBT method involves fusing and stretching two or more fibers at high temperatures to form a special. By dividing a single optical signal from a central Optical Line Terminal (OLT) into multiple outputs for Optical Network Terminals (ONTs) at users' homes, splitters eliminate the need for dedicated fibers to each residence—slashing infrastructure costs while scaling network reach. Bandwidth is shared amongst customers in a PON, and the bandwidth received by a customer is not related to the power received at the optical network terminal (ONT) as long as the power is high enough so the ONT can operate. The working principle of fiber splitters is relatively simple, and the signal distribution is.
