This custom assembly combines one SC/APC interface with two MPO-format interfaces through a 1×2 PLC splitter circuit. It is intended for projects that need a compact connectorized splitter rather than a standard MPO breakout cable. The product image and model record indicate two MPO interfaces, while the final 8-fiber assignment, active positions, gender, keying, pinning, polishing type, port map, and cable lengths must be confirmed on the approved drawing.
Model: BWN-MMST-PLC-1FSC-2x8FMPO-0.9mm
Product type: Custom 1×2 PLC splitter assembly with one SC/APC interface and two MPO-format interfaces.
The current product record identifies the MPO interfaces as 8F. Confirm MPO connector brand, gender, key orientation, pinning, active fiber positions, channel map, cable lengths, and complete-path optical limits on the approved drawing before production.
This page is for a connectorized 1×2 PLC splitter assembly using one SC/APC interface and two MPO-format interfaces. The current model record identifies the MPO interfaces as 8F, but the approved drawing must define which fiber positions are active and how the optical circuit is mapped.
| Configuration Item | Current Product Record | Required Project Confirmation |
|---|---|---|
| Model | BWN-MMST-PLC-1FSC-2x8FMPO-0.9mm | Confirm the model revision on the quotation and drawing |
| Optical circuit | 1×2 PLC splitter | Confirm input/output direction and complete channel map |
| Connector layout | One SC/APC and two MPO-format interfaces are shown | Approve connector functions, quantities, and labels |
| MPO fiber count | The current model record identifies 8F MPO interfaces | Confirm populated positions, active positions, and fiber assignment |
| MPO mechanical details | Configuration-dependent | Specify MPO or MTP-branded connector, gender, key orientation, pinning, and polishing type |
| Fiber and buffer | The model record indicates 0.9 mm buffered fiber | Confirm fiber type, buffer material, color, and environmental requirement |
| Cable lengths | Configuration-dependent | Specify SC-side length, both MPO-side lengths, and tolerance |
| Decision Point | This PLC Splitter Assembly | MPO Breakout or Harness Cable |
|---|---|---|
| Optical function | Divides optical power through a defined 1×2 PLC circuit | Routes individual MPO fibers to other connectors without power splitting |
| Primary specification | Split circuit, active positions, port map, wavelengths, and complete-path loss | Fiber count, polarity, one-to-one mapping, and cable length |
| Acceptance method | Test each active input-to-output optical path | Verify continuity, polarity, and connector performance |
Selection note: Do not use “splitter” and “breakout cable” interchangeably. If the project only needs MPO fan-out or one-to-one routing, specify an MPO breakout assembly instead of a PLC splitter.
Evaluate the finished connectorized assembly, not isolated connector or bare-PLC values. The approved drawing and purchase specification should define the following acceptance criteria.
| Parameter | Required Confirmation |
|---|---|
| Operating wavelength | State the project wavelength or wavelength range |
| Maximum insertion loss | Specify per complete active SC/APC-to-MPO optical path |
| Uniformity and PDL | Define limits for the approved 1×2 PLC circuit |
| Return loss and directivity | Confirm test method, wavelength, and acceptance limit |
| Environmental range | Confirm operating temperature, storage temperature, and humidity |
| Test documentation | Define channel numbering, test wavelengths, report format, and traceability labels |

Use MPO as the generic connector term. Specify an MTP-branded connector only when the approved BOM or customer requirement calls for it. “MPT” should not be used as the generic connector name.
The current product image and model record indicate one SC/APC interface and two MPO-format interfaces. Confirm the connector functions, quantities, and labels on the approved drawing.
The current model record identifies 8F MPO interfaces. The drawing must still confirm the populated positions, active positions, polarity or pinning, and complete channel assignment.
The current product record lists a 1×2 PLC circuit. Confirm which interface is the input, which interfaces are the outputs, and how every active optical path is mapped and tested.
No. A PLC splitter divides optical power through a defined optical circuit. A breakout or harness cable routes individual MPO fibers without optical power splitting.
Specify the connector brand requirement, fiber count, gender, key orientation, pinning, polishing type, populated positions, active positions, and mating interface.
Define and test the maximum insertion loss for each complete active SC/APC-to-MPO path at the agreed wavelengths. Generic connector or bare-PLC values do not represent the finished assembly.
Send the optical circuit, connector functions, MPO details, active-position map, fiber and buffer requirements, cable lengths, wavelengths, path-loss limit, quantity, labels, packaging, and test-document requirements.
