Fiber Optic cabling is made with glass fibers. Provide very little variation in the signal they carry over long distances. The full potential speed fiber optic cabling can carry has not been reached even with Gigabit technology. These cables have greater bandwidth than electrical transmission through wires.
Fiber Optic cabling is constructed of three concentric layers: The "core" is the central region of an optical fiber through which light is transmitted.
Mode is a single electromagnetic field pattern that travels in fiber.
Singlemode is an optical fiber, with a small core (2-9 microns that supports one mode). The mode size (standard ie 8.3/125) is stamped on the yellow cable jacket. Singlemode is most commonly used for high speed, long distance applications.
Multimode is an optical fiber with a core (25-200 microns) that supports several modes. The core commonly 62.5/125 or 50/125 is stamped on the cable jacket.
Always check equipment requirements or the fibre optic cable jacket to determine which core size you need. Multimode is most commonly used for lower speed, short distance applications.
Simplex cable has a single fiber
Duplex has two fibers usually side by side in style.
Commonly used Connectors are ST,SC, LC and FC

What is Fiber Optic Cable and How Does it Work?
Fiber optic cabling is based on optical fibers, which are long, flexible, hair-width strands of ultra-pure glass. Optical fibers are formed when preform blanks – portions of specially manufactured glass – are heated to between 3000 and 4000 degrees and then drawn out at a rate of up to 66 feet per second.

Fiber Optic Cable Jackets and What They Identify
Fiber optic cable jacket colors can make it fast and simple to recognize exactly which type of cable you are dealing with. For example, the color yellow clearly identifies a single mode cable, while orange indicates multimode. Read more »
Fiber Optic Testing
When you’re installing a fiber optic network, one of the most important steps in the operation is testing the newly installed and terminated optical fiber cables, to be sure that they’re functioning properly. Before the testing and certification of a fiber network can begin, there are a couple of points you’ll need to have covered, to ensure that the job is accurately and successfully completed.
