I want to know the exact difference between the single and multimode fibre cables.then the core specification for the above two medias.anybody can send reply to e-mail also(vinguy51@rediffmail.com).
Single Mode fiber cables are made of a single strand of glass fiber; Multi Mode fiber cables are made of a number of glass fibers.
Single Mode fibers have a standard diameter of 9 microns; Multi mode fiber bundles are usually 50 or 62.5 microns in diameter.
Single Mode fiber is able to carry higher bandwidths of data over longer distances; Multi Mode fiber is able to work with less expensive light sources.
