Optical splitter and fiber coupler
Optical couplers can split or join signals in fibers. These devices work both ways, which helps strong network communication. They help send light signals. Among these, fiber optic splitters and fiber optic couplers are fundamental. While the terms are sometimes used interchangeably, they serve distinct purposes. It is mainly utilized in FTTx/PON networks, where they divide a single fiber into multiple branches to support multiple end users, thus reducing the load on the fiber backbone. For example, optical splitters send light to many output ports. Directional 2 × 2 couplers (see Figure 1) are usually used for.
