OM1 Multimode fiber type was the first MMF version to be standardized in 1989. In the two tables above, we've summarized the main differences between OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4, and OM5. 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. 5 µm) OM1 is commonly found in older buildings, campuses, and legacy network environments. They consist of a high quality 900um LSZH cable terminated with an optimized connector for low insertion loss and low back reflection.
