Number of cores in indoor multimode fiber
The number of cores refers to the individual strands within the cable that carry the optical signals. Apart from the OM1 type, all of them are bending-optimized fiber incorporating technology to deliver enhanced macro-bending performance produced by a unique Plasma Chemical Vapor Deposition. Multimode fiber (MMF) is a kind of optical fiber mostly used in communication over short distances, for example, inside a building or for the campus. The number of optical cores in an optical fiber is the total number of equipment interfaces multiplied by 2, plus 10% to 20% of the spare quantity, and if the communication mode of the equipment has serial communication and equipment multiplexing, you can reduce the number of cores.
