Should the fiber optic cable in the building be multimode or fiber optic
Single-mode or multimode fiber—these two options should be selected based on your budget, distance, and performance needs. Although they can do the same job in some instances, the different construction methods make each of them better suited to certain tasks and budgets. Two of the most common cable types you'll hear about when implementing a fiber network are single mode and multimode fiber. They both have their sweet spot, and knowing which one fits your organization's needs can help you make the right choice. This small diameter core, typically around 9 microns in diameter, allows only one mode of light to pass through, resulting in a narrower beam of light. While both serve the purpose of transmitting data through light pulses, they differ significantly in their characteristics, applications, and cost considerations.
