Optical Splitter Technology and Principles
At its core, a fiber optic splitter relies on the principles of light reflection, refraction, and waveguiding to divide signals. They are devices that split an incident light beam into several light beams at certain splitting. Fiber optic splitter, also referred to as optical splitter, fiber splitter or beam splitter, is an integrated waveguide optical power distribution device that can split an incident light beam into two or more light beams, and vice versa, containing multiple input and output ends.

Principles and Characteristics of Optical Circulators
An optical circulator is a three- or four-port designed such that entering any port exits from the next. This means that if light enters port 1 it is emitted from port 2, but if some of the emitted light is reflected back to the circulator, it does not come out of port 1 but instead exits from port 3. This is analogous to the operation of an electronic. Fiber-optic circulators are used to separate optical signals.
