I LOVE Network Testing, Ep 5. Demystifying Multimode, Singlemode, and the Connectors that Make Fiber Networks Work - ERP Spain.com - España y América Latina

Not all fiber optic cabling is created equal—and choosing the right type can make or break your network’s performance. In this engaging and interactive webcast, we’ll cut through the confusion surrounding single mode and multimode fiber, plus explore how fiber type and connectors impact everything from speed to distance to application compatibility. What You'll Learn: - The key differences between single mode and multimode fiber - How to distinguish between OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4, and OM5 multimode fiber types - The characteristics of OS1 and OS2 singlemode fiber - How fiber selection impacts application compatibility and transmission distance - Why UPC connectors might be preferred over APC connectors — and why the polish matters - The difference between LC and SC connectors and where each is typically used - When to use each fiber and connector type for optimal performance - How the LANBERT test from NetAlly can be used to verify a fiber’s ability to transport data Join Mike on this fifth episode of the I LOVE Network Testing series to build a solid foundation in fiber types and connectors. Whether you're involved in designing, installing, or maintaining fiber optic networks, this session will give you the knowledge you need to plan and support fiber networks with confidence.
