Fiber and Bandwidth within a Data Center
What fiber you use in a data center is determined by the amount of bandwidth your high-speed network requires. Sometimes, it may be necessary to mix newer, higher-speed fiber with older, previously installed fibers.
What is Bandwidth?
Bandwidth is the total amount of data that can be transmitted down a fiber.
Maximum Bandwidths of Different Multimode Fibers
- OM1 – 62.5 um Core – 10GBit up to 33 meters
- OM2 – 50 um Core – 10GBit up to 82 meters
- OM3 – 50 um Core, Laser Optimized – 10GBit up to 300 meters
- OM4 – 50 um Core, Laser Optimized – 10GBit up to 550 meters
What are the Main Differences?
- OM1 contains the only fiber with a 62.5um core and has the lowest bandwidth capacity.
- The major difference between OM2 and OM3 fiber patch cords is that OM3 fibers by design is (laser) optimized, allowing data to transmit further.
- OM4 fibers are capable of transporting 10GBit data the furthest.
Additional Bandwidth Options
With a greater demand for higher bandwidth, extensions of IEEE 802.3 standards have emerged. Growing in popularity are 12-fiber MPO-style connectors. These newer protocols allow OM3 and OM4 fiber jumpers to operate at either 40Gb or 100Gb per second. Rather than using traditional serial transmission as a LC or SC connector would, these MPO connectors operate using parallel optics transmission (lanes). By transmitting 10Gb per fiber (lane) of the ribbon fiber, the higher bandwidths are achieved.
