What is the maximum distance for 10GBASE-SR using multimode fiber?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking for the maximum distance that can be achieved with the 10GBASE-SR standard when using different types of multimode fiber. It presents multiple-choice options and requires identifying the correct maximum distance based on the type of multimode fiber (OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4).
Answer
Up to 300 meters with OM3, up to 400 meters with OM4.
The maximum distance for 10GBASE-SR using multimode fiber is up to 300 meters with OM3 multimode fiber, and up to 400 meters with OM4 multimode fiber.
Answer for screen readers
The maximum distance for 10GBASE-SR using multimode fiber is up to 300 meters with OM3 multimode fiber, and up to 400 meters with OM4 multimode fiber.
More Information
10GBASE-SR is intended for short-range communications over multimode fiber, using wavelengths around 850nm.
Tips
A common mistake is assuming single-mode fiber distances for multimode fiber, which supports much shorter ranges.
