Abstract
An electronics module has been designed and tested for the CMS RPC detector readout. The module consists of twelve sub-blocks, each of which receives an optical signal at 1.6 GHz, converts it into electronic form for the splitting process and sends it forth to two or four destinations in optical form. It is a critical part in the trigger system of the experiment. Details of the design are presented, as well as test results confirming that the splitter fulfils all system requirements.
