FAQ

Q：

What is the core difference between single‑mode and multimode fiber patch cords?

A：

Single‑mode (e.g., LF002‑LF008, LF010): Core size 9/125μm, G.652D or G.657A2 fiber, operating at 1310/1490/1550nm, designed for long‑distance, high‑bandwidth transmission.
Multimode (e.g., LF009, LF011): Core size 50/125μm (OM3), operating at 850nm, designed for short distances (≤300m at 10G), typically used in data centers and enterprise LANs.

Q：

What is the difference between 50/125µm and 62.5/125µm multimode fiber? Which one should I choose?

A：

50/125µm (OM3/OM4) is the modern standard with higher bandwidth – supports 10G up to 300m or more. 62.5/125µm (OM1) is legacy, only 1G up to 275m. Always choose 50/125µm for new installations to support future 10G/25G/40G upgrades.

Q：

Can I connect a multimode patch cord to single‑mode equipment? If not, what happens?

A：

NEVER mix multimode patch cords with single‑mode equipment. Consequences:

Huge insertion loss ≥10dB due to core mismatch (50µm vs 9µm)

Severe modal dispersion distorting the signal

A 850nm multimode transceiver launched into single‑mode fiber will have almost no output; a single‑mode transceiver into multimode fiber will also fail.
