Multimode 50/125 OM2 Fiber Optic Cable FAQ
What is multimode 50/125?
50/125 is one of the most commonly used multimode optical fibers, with a 50-micron core and 125-micron cladding diameter. The 50/125 fiber is optimized for Gigabit applications using an 850nm wavelength.
What is OM2 multimode fiber?
OM2 refers to the 50-micron core diameter multimode optical fiber with a full injection bandwidth of 850/1300 nm and above 500/500 MHz·km. It supports up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet at lengths up to 82 meters and is commonly used for 1 Gigabit Ethernet applications.
Is 50/125 single-mode or multimode?
50/125 is a multimode fiber due to its larger 50-micron core diameter. Single-mode fibers have a much smaller core size, typically around 8-9 microns.
What does a 50/125 optical fiber mean?
In a 50/125 optical fiber, the first number (50) refers to the diameter of the fiber core in microns, while the second number (125) refers to the diameter of the fiber cladding in microns.
What is the difference between OM1 and OM2?
OM1 has a core size of 62.5 microns and is capable of distances up to 300 meters, while OM2 has a core size of 50 microns and can travel up to 600 meters.
Can OM2 support 10G?
Yes, OM2 fiber supports up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet at lengths up to 82 meters when using an LED light source.
How far can OM2 cable go?
For 10GBASE-SR, OM2 cable has a maximum distance of 82 meters. For 1000BASE-SX, it can reach up to 550 meters.
What is the wavelength of 50/125 fiber?
Multimode 50/125 fiber optic cables are designed to operate at 850nm and 1310nm wavelengths, with the 850nm wavelength optimized for Gigabit applications.
