Centralized Splitting
There are two main approaches to FTTX optical splitters: centralized and cascaded. ADC recommends
the centralized approach for several significant reasons.
The centralized splitter approach maximizes the highest efficiency of expensive OLT cards. Since each •
home in this approach is fiber-connected directly back to a central hub, all ports on the OLT card are
usedand100%efficiencyisachieved.
Provides easy testing and troubleshooting access. It is very difficult to use an optical time-domain •
reflectometer (OTDR) to test multiple splitters unless the network is built with each fiber characterized
to enable the OTDR to recognize each individual fiber run.
Minimizes signal loss by eliminating extra splices and/or connectors from the distribution network. •
Each time an optical signal encounters a network component or connection, such as a splitter, it
suffers a certain degree of signal loss. Therefore, when splitters are cascaded together, loss will
occur at each device. The combined loss effect can reduce the distance a signal can travel, imposing
distance limitations on fiber runs.
Reducing the number of components in the network decreases the number of opportunities •
for failure.
