Zhone PON Splitters & WDM Combiners
PON 4RU Chassis
The PON shelf is a 4RU chassis that can accommodate up to 12 single
PON splitters or WDM Combiners LGX modules. The chassis is
flexible enough to allow for the installation of the modules in the front
or in the rear part of the chassis. The chassis also includes two fiber
management brackets that can be installed both in the front and in the
rear part of the chassis.
PON Splitter 1x2, 1x4, 1x8, and 1x16 modules
The PON shelf can accommodate several types of PON splitters LGX
modules. The PON splitter modules feature low insertion loss, low
polarization dependant loss and high port-to-port uniformity. All the
modules include SC/APC connectors.
PON Splitter 1x32 (1RU) and 1x64 (2RU)
The PON splitters 1x32 and 1x64 are available in 1RU and 2RU rack
mounting format, respectively. The PON splitters feature low insertion
loss, low polarization dependant loss and high port-to-port uniformity.
Both models include SC/APC connectors.
WDM Combiner modules
The PON shelf can also accommodate different types of WDM
Combiner LGX modules. The WDM Combiner modules are to be used
when RF video overlay (RF @ 1550 nm) service is provided. The
WDM Combiner modules feature low insertion loss, low polarization
dependant loss and low ripple. All the modules include SC/APC
connectors for the combined port (1310/1490/1550 nm) and the RF @
1550 nm port.
Wall Mounting Brackets
When limited space is an issue for the PON splitter or WDM combiner
module installation, Zhone also offers wall mounting brackets for
these modules.
