Can I mix single-mode and multimode fiber in the same network?

You can, but you will need special mode-conditioning patch cords and compatible transceivers. It is generally best to keep fiber types separate for simplicity.

How do I know if I need OS2 or OM4?

Measure your cable runs. If they are under 300 meters, OM4 is usually best. For longer distances, OS2 is the better choice.

Is single-mode always faster than multimode?

Not always. Both fiber types can support high speeds, but single-mode excels over long distances. For short runs, multimode can be just as fast and more cost effective.

What about future-proofing my fiber installation?

Plan for future growth by choosing fiber that supports higher speeds and longer distances than currently required. Proper documentation helps with easier upgrades.
