In the complex landscape of fiber optic infrastructure, selecting the right cable type—single-mode (OS1/OS2) or multimode (OM1/OM2/OM3/OM4/OM5)—can define a network's speed, reach, and cost-effectiveness. However, it is not always easy to find out what has been covered, and where it can be found. As a professional fiber optic cable manufacturer and OEM supplier, Getek provides a full range of custom fiber cables that meet ISO/IEC and TIA standards, including EN 50173, ISO/IEC 11801, IEC 60793, ITU-T G. There are different types of fiber optic cables because each type is optimized for specific applications that have unique requirements for bandwidth, transmission distance, and environmental factors. This article will introduce you to several commonly used communication optical cable models to help you better understand and choose the right optical cable products. Optical fiber is a technology used to transmit data by sending short light pulses along a long fiber, which is typically made of glass or plastic.
