Choosing the Best Multimode Cable: OM1, OM2, OM3, or OM4

In fiber optic networking, there are two main types of cables: single-mode and multimode cables. Multimode fiber optic cables have a core size ranging from 50 to 100 micrometers, which is significantly larger than single-mode cables. This larger core size allows for higher bandwidth transmission, accommodating more optical signal traffic compared to single-mode cables. Global…
