Bolivian Optical Cable OS2
The cables can carry signals up to 200 km, and they can achieve transmission rates in excess of 10Gbps. The purpose of OS2 fiber cabling is to do work that is best suited by singlemode fiber optics. This article explains the core differences between OS1 and OS2 singlemode fibers, as well as OM3, OM4, and OM5 multimode fibers—to help OEM clients, installers, and data center engineers make informed decisions. Fiber optic cables used in telecommunication are broadly categorized into two types – Multimode fiber and Single-mode fiber cables. In most modern outdoor and future-ready optical networks, OS2 fiber is generally preferred over OS1 fiber because it provides lower attenuation, longer transmission distance, better CWDM/DWDM compatibility, and stronger support for high-capacity infrastructure. An OS cable, like OS2, will usually have a 9-micron core while OM cables can be over 100 microns.
