Multi-Mode Fiber Multi-mode fiber uses a large diameter glass core which provides multiple modes or pathways for light to travel. The multiple modes allow more light essentially data through the cable. However, at longer distances, the light will start to experience dispersion distortion in light which can limit data transmissions through unclear, incomplete signaling on the receiver end.

In contrast to multimode, single-mode fibre cable has only one mode of propagation: a single wavelength of light in the fibre core.
Single-mode cable OS2 has a small 8—micron glass core that is much smaller than multimode and only one pathway of light or mode of propagation. OS stands for optical single-mode. With only a single wavelength of light passing through its core, single-mode fibre realigns the light toward the core center instead of simply bouncing it off the edge of the core as multimode does.
OS1 is applied to inside-plant tight-buffered cable, whereas OS2 is applied to loose-tube cables. Multimode fibre has a much shorter maximum distance than single-mode fibre, making it a good choice for premise applications.
Single-mode fibre can go as far as 40 km or more without hurting the signal, making it ideal for long-haul applications. Single-mode fibre has a significantly higher bandwidth than multimode fibre. You can use a pair of single-mode fibre strands full-duplex for up to twice the throughput of multimode fibre cable. Multimode and single-mode cables cost about the same. But multimode fibre systems are much cheaper than single-mode fibre systems and considered more cost-effective in the right application.
This is due to the lower price of multimode transceivers and components. Multimode transceivers are generally two to three times cheaper than single-mode transceivers. Beyond the reach of multimode optical fibers, it becomes necessary to use single-mode optical fiber. However, when assessing single-mode optical fibers, be sure to consider newer options. A bend-insensitive, full-spectrum single-mode optical fiber provides more transceiver options, greater bandwidth and is less sensitive to handling of the cables and patch cords than is conventional single-mode optical fiber.
Today, In fact, To resolve this, With its larger core, That was the only time when In addition, TIA issued a new standard for the next generation of multimode optical fiber called wide band OM5 multimode optical fiber. In this way, end users can obtain greater bandwidth and higher speeds from a single fiber by simply adding wavelengths.
