Understanding Compaq StorageWorks RAID Array 4000 and Infrastructure Cabling 4 In Figure 2, the small diameter of a single-mode fiber allows one coherent stream of light to travel along a single path. Longwave lasers are used with single-mode fiber to transmit data up to 10 kilometers. Figure 2. Single-mode fiber cable Understanding Fiber Types Types of fibre channel media4 include: • 62.5-micron multi-mode. • 50-micron multi-mode. • 9-micron single-mode. 4 The fiber types are distinguishable by their data transmission rates and distance capabilities.
