...reliably run it. Multimode usually comes in 50- or 62.5-micron, which is the core diameter. The larger the core size, the more bandwidth you get, but the shorter distance you can go. To give you a general comparison, most singlemode comes in 9-micron core, which is about 1/6 th the diameter of multimode When to use what . In short, the fiber...
