Two industry standards for Fiber Optic Cabling:
Single-mode Fiber (100BaseBX Standard): Single-mode fiber optic cables use a single light path to transmit data over long distances with minimal signal loss and high bandwidth. The 100BaseBX standard operates at 1 Gbps over distances up to 10 kilometers (6.2 miles), making it ideal for long-haul connections and high-speed data transmission. Single-mode fiber is characterized by its small core diameter, typically 8 to 10 microns, which allows for the propagation of a single light mode. This results in low attenuation and high signal clarity, making it suitable for high-speed, high-distance communication needs.
Multimode Fiber (100BaseSX Standard): Multimode fiber optic cables transmit data using multiple light paths or modes within the core, which is larger than that of single-mode fiber. The 100BaseSX standard supports data rates of 1 Gbps over distances up to 550 meters (1,804 feet), making it suitable for shorter-distance applications within buildings or across campuses. Multimode fiber typically has a core diameter of 50 or 62.5 microns, which allows multiple light modes to travel simultaneously. While it offers higher signal attenuation compared to single-mode fiber, multimode fiber is cost-effective and ideal for shorter-range data transmission where high bandwidth is still required.
