Custom Singlemode Fiber Cables - Single-mode fiber offers a higher data transmission rate and up to 50 times more distance than
multimode, but it is also more expensive. Single mode fiber optic cable has a small core and only one pathway of light. With only a single wavelength of light passing through its core, singlemode transmission aligns
the light toward the center of the core instead of bouncing it off the edge of the core as in the case of multimode. Singlemode is typically used in long-haul network connections, measured in miles. Singlemode fiber
optic cables feature a 9-micron glass core.
Custom Multimode Fiber Cables - Multimode fiber optic cables have a large-diameter core that is much
larger than the wavelength of light transmitted, and therefore multiple pathways of light are used in the fiber core. As a result, multimode fiber provides a high bandwidth. Multimode fiber optic cable can be used
for adding segments to your network, alarm systems, bringing fiber to the desktop, etc. Multimode cable comes in two core sizes: 50 micron or 62.5 micron
Duplex Fiber - Duplex fiber cables, featuring simultaneous, bi-directional data transfer, consist of two
fibers, usually in a zipcord style. Duplex applications: Workstations, fiber switches, servers, and fiber modems.. Duplex fiber is available in singlemode and multimode.
Simplex Fiber - Simplex fiber optic cables, featuring one-way data
communication, are frequently used in one-way data collection applications. Simplex fiber cables are also available in singlemode and multimode
