All about OFC SM fibre ( Single mode fibre)- It is a type of fibre optics cable that has smaller core diameter compared to multimode fibre. This means only a single mode of light can travel through it,resulting less signal loss and higher bandwidth. It transmits a single ray of light,which has higher bandwidth capabilities and preferred in longer distance applications. Impurities and irregulations in physical construction of optical fibre causes Scattering. Optical fibres accept only unipolar signals only. Isopropyl alcohol is used to clean after removing primary coating of OFC. Multi mode Fibre Optic Cable- Large diameter core that allows multiple modes of light to propogate. As the core increases,more data passes through a given time. Quality of signal reduced over long distances. Typically used for short distances, data and audio/video applications in LANs.
