Differences Between OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4 & OM5 Multimode Fibers | FS

Fiber optic cable (goo.gl/P4ijjH) includes single mode fiber (goo.gl/XPRTL5) and multimode fiber (goo.gl/x2Zhn9). Multimode fiber cables are divided into OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4, OM5. What’s their difference? OM1 and OM2 are designed to support 1G and 10G network. A link of a 1000BASE-SX SFP over an OM2 fiber can reach up to 550 meters. OM3 and OM4 are designed to support 40G and 100G. OM4 cable with a QSFP 40G SR4 or a QSFP28 100G SR4, distances will be 150m and 100m. To save fiber in a high-speed network, OM5 is introduced to support 200G and 400G. For more details about fiber patch cables, please visit goo.gl/k678N9

Would love to see this video regarding OS1 types. Nicely put together.

[@FS_com]

This video is mainly to identify the differences & applications among MMFs. Thanks for your advice. We'll consider that to perfect our video later.

i have seen a lots of tutorial video regarding fiber optic but your tutorial video is Literally awsome . keep it up . thnx

[@FS_com]

Thanks for your support！

[@Dr_b_]

very good presentation, cleared it all up

Hello, we are so happy you like the presentation.

[@origami429]

Thank you very much from Cambodia. Any guides for learning or understanding the Fiber Optic for beginner? I want to understand basic from 0 to Expert. Thank you

@@FS_com Thank you very much. 😃

All the OM1 cable I have seen historically had a grey jacket not orange. It was how you could distinguish them. Also if the distance is short, say under 50m 10Gbps Ethernet will work jst fine over OM2.

Dear Jonathan, the OM1 cable with grey coat is the armored patch cable. In most cases, the OM1 cable is in orange. You can rest assured that FS fiber optic cables are fully compliant with the industry standard.

Can we connect FO patch cable OM1 to OM3 using adapters?

[@tonivasilev6473]

Do we have attenuate?

[@FS_com]

It's not gonna work. The power penalty resulted by mixing 50/125 And 62.5/125 fibers is intolerable.

[@Martin-ot7xj]

Hi , i have read in some article regarding Multi mode fiber that maxium distanse is 300 Meter , but in your video you mention 550Meter for excample on OM3 , can you please tell me on multimode can we go more than 300M , for excample as you said 550M or not ?/ thnx

[@FS_com]

Of course it is possible, thank you for your question🌹

What fibre are used by Internet service provider to ftth

[@FS_com]

G.652 and G.657 are generally used.

[@franian77]

@@FS_com Than you so much for the reply

[@Martin-ot7xj]

Hi there , AT 0:41 you didnt mention maximum distance on OM5 to get 400G how much is it ? thnx

[@FS_com]

For the 400G module in our front office, the theoretical transmission distance is 100m.

Sir om2 & om3 possible to splice it's working
