Is LC fiber cable divided into single mode and dual mode?

　　LC fiber cable is indeed divided into single-mode and dual-mode. The following is a detailed explanation of LC fiber cable single-mode and dual-mode:

　　I. Definition and characteristics

　　LC single mode fiber cable

　　Using single-mode fiber as the tranSMission medium, the fiber diameter is generally 9/125 μm.

　　The operating wavelength is usually 1310nm or 1550nm.

　　The transmission distance can reach tens to hundreds of kilometers.

　　The bandwidth is wide, allowing for high-speed, high-capacity data transmission.

　　The signal attenuation is small, and the signal transmission quality in the optical fiber is high.

　　LC multimode fiber cable

　　Multimode fiber is used as the transmission medium, and the fiber diameter is generally 50/125 μm or 62.5/125 μm.

　　The operating wavelength is usually 850nm.

　　The transmission distance is relatively short, typically between a few hundred meters and several kilometers.

　　The bandwidth is relatively narrow, resulting in greater signal attenuation.

　　But it is less expensive and easy to install and maintain.

　　Application scenarios

　　LC single mode fiber cable

　　It is suitable for scenarios that require long-distance and high-speed transmission, such as core backbone networks.

　　It is often used for connectivity within and between data centers.

　　It is also suitable for backplane transmission of wireless communication base stations.

　　LC multimode fiber cable

　　It is mostly used in short-distance transmission, such as building interiors, campus networks, and other access layer and convergence layer networks.

　　Applicable to the field of data communication (e.g. Ethernet, FDDI, ATM, etc.).

　　It is also suitable for the transmission of storage area networks (SANs) and local area networks (e.g. intranets, campus networks, etc.).

　　III. Selection of recommendations

　　When selecting an LC fiber cable, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the actual application requirements and fiber transmission conditions. If long-distance, high-speed transmission is required, and the signal quality requirements are high, it is recommended to choose an LC single-mode fiber cable; if the transmission distance is short and there are certain cost requirements, an LC multimode fiber cable can be selected.

　　In summary, LC fiber optic cable is indeed divided into single-mode and dual-mode, and there are significant differences between the two in terms of definition, characteristics, application scenarios, and selection suggestions. When choosing, comprehensive consideration should be made according to actual needs.
