Lynx Technik yellobrik OSP 1812 M Passive Optical Splitter / Combiner

The OSP 1812 M is a compact optical splitter/combiner that facilitates the splitting or combining of fiber optic signals. With one input at 100% power, it provides two outputs: one at 90% power and a second at 10% power, making it particularly suitable for monitoring applications where a primary signal path and a lower-power monitoring path are required. Its passive design ensures reliable operation without the need for external power sources.
