The splitter has a great effect of increasing network reliability. A single 1 x 32 splitter has less loss than 1 x 2 and 1 x 16 or 1 x 4 fiber splitter and 1 x8 cascaded splitters or any combination of 1 x 16 or fiber splitter 1 x 4 and 1 x8 cascaded splitters in the network. With the evolution of optical networks, the need for multiple distributions of optical signals is crucial. For this application TELNET, S.A. offers its range of single mode and multimode fiber splitter. http://www.opticalplcsplitter.com/optical-fiber-splitter/
