signal losses can be significant, which may result in a signal that has a low
signal/noise ratio. As a general rule, we recommend splitting the beam into three
detectors at most.

4.3.3.1 Fiber Optic Beam Splitting

Fiber optic components cost more, but introduce lower light losses than equivalent
optical components. They are especially beneficial when the signal is low or must
be split into several components.
