In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a first channel core in communication with a second channel core and a third channel core of a photonic waveguide, a splitter/coupler module movable relative to the channel cores to dynamically adjust a ratio of optical signals at two of the channel cores of the photonic waveguide, and an actuation device operable to move the splitter/coupler module based on input received during operation of the photonic waveguide.
