    Abstract: A fiber optic beam splitter includes housing, a single first optical fiber and a pair of second optical fibers which meet and abut the single first optical fiber at inside the housing. An optical communication module includes a light-emitting diode (LED); a photodiode; and two such fiber optic beam splitters. In each beam splitter, a tip of a first of the pair of second optical fibers is connected outside of the housing to the LED, and a tip of a second of the pair of second optical fibers is connected outside of the housing to the photodiode; and a tip of the single first optical fiber which is outside of the housing, is in optical communication with an exterior of the module. An optical communication network includes two or more such optical communication modules. An irrigation system configured to support a field of crops includes such an optical communication network.
