MPO PLC Splitter

PLC Optical Splitter SC/UPC with MPO Connector

This product record covers a connectorized PLC optical splitter assembly identified by model BWN-MMST-PLC-1SCPC-2FMPO-SM-0.9mm. The current product name describes an SC/UPC-to-MPO configuration, while the model code records 1SCPC, 2FMPO, SM and 0.9 mm designations. The previous generic specification block also referenced SC/APC, LC/APC and mixed connector options, so it should not be used as a configuration datasheet. Confirm the controlled drawing, optical schematic, MPO geometry, connector polish, fiber construction, cable lengths and finished-path acceptance limits before quotation or production.

Model: BWN-MMST-PLC-1SCPC-2FMPO-SM-0.9mm

Release note: This is the confirmed product identifier. Its SCPC, FMPO, SM and 0.9 mm codes require an approved drawing or BOM before they are converted into final connector, fiber and optical specifications.

PLC Optical Splitter SC/UPC with MPO Connector: Configuration Record

This page is assigned to one model-specific connectorized PLC splitter record. Broader PLC splitter terms should remain with the product family pages.

Page-level interfaceSC/UPC and MPO, according to the current product name; connector polish still requires engineering confirmation

Release statusApproved drawing or BOM required before quotation or production

PLC Function and MPO Interface Are Separate Design Decisions

A PLC splitter divides or combines optical power according to a defined topology. An MPO connector is a multi-fiber interface. Selecting this assembly therefore requires both an optical-path schematic and a fiber-position map; connector names alone do not define a buildable configuration.

Design layerDetails to approve
PLC optical functionInput/output direction, split count, coupling ratio and path acceptance limits
MPO interfaceFiber count, male or female geometry, key orientation, polarity and active positions
SC interfaceConnector count, UPC or APC polish, adapter interface and labeling
Cable assemblyFiber construction, diameter, jacket, branch lengths and overall length

SC/UPC Configuration Control

The current page title identifies SC/UPC, but the model uses an SCPC code and the previous generic table also listed SC/APC and LC/APC options. These descriptions must not be treated as interchangeable. Confirm the end-face polish and mating interface on the controlled drawing before the product is released.

Configuration Details to Confirm

  • Approved optical schematic, path direction and PLC split topology
  • Split count and coupling ratio for every optical path
  • SC connector count, UPC or APC polish and adapter interface
  • MPO fiber count, male or female geometry, key orientation and polarity
  • Active fiber positions and complete fiber map
  • Single-mode fiber construction and application wavelengths
  • Cable diameter, jacket, branch lengths and total assembly length
  • Connector-level and finished-path loss limits, test wavelengths and measurement method
  • Labels, packaging, quantity and controlled document revision

Engineering Evidence Required

The earlier loss, return-loss, temperature, mating-cycle, material and standards values were presented as a generic table and were not linked to a model-specific drawing or test report. They have been removed from this draft. Restore only the values that are supported by the approved BOM, datasheet or acceptance report for this exact configuration.

Prepare a Configuration Review or RFQ

  1. Send the controlled drawing or BOM.
  2. Identify the connected equipment and required SC and MPO interfaces.
  3. Provide the PLC schematic, path direction, split ratio and fiber map.
  4. Define test wavelengths and acceptance limits for the finished assembly.
  5. Confirm cable lengths, labels, quantity and required documentation.

FAQ

FAQ About the PLC Optical Splitter SC/UPC with MPO Connector

What is confirmed for this product record?

The confirmed identifier is BWN-MMST-PLC-1SCPC-2FMPO-SM-0.9mm. The page classifies it as a connectorized PLC optical splitter assembly; the final optical and connector configuration still requires a controlled drawing or BOM.

Is the SC connector definitely SC/UPC?

Not from the available evidence alone. The page name says SC/UPC, the model contains SCPC, and the previous generic table also referenced SC/APC. Confirm the connector polish and mating interface before quotation.

Does 2FMPO prove two female MPO connectors?

No. It is an internal model designation and does not independently prove the MPO count, gender, fiber count, key orientation, polarity or active positions.

Is this a 1×2 PLC splitter?

The previous generic table described a 1×2 PLC, but the current model record does not provide a controlled optical schematic. Confirm the split count, ratio and signal direction before release.

Which single-mode fiber and wavelengths apply?

The model contains an SM designation. Confirm the exact fiber construction, applicable wavelengths and test method in the approved datasheet instead of relying on a family-level specification.

What MPO details are required for production?

Specify the fiber count, male or female geometry, key orientation, polarity, active positions, pinning where applicable and complete fiber map.

How should optical acceptance limits be defined?

Define connector-level and finished-path limits together with the test wavelengths, direction, reference method and approved topology. Do not combine generic component values into an unverified assembly claim.

What should a buyer send for a configuration review?

Send the drawing or BOM, SC interface, MPO geometry, fiber map, polarity, PLC topology, cable lengths, labels, test criteria, quantity and required document revision.
