OM1 fiber refers to multimode fiber that, at the 850/1300 nm windows, provides overfilled launch bandwidth of 200/500 MHz·km or higher. It uses LED light sources, has a core diameter of 62.5 μm, and typically features an orange outer jacket. It can be used in Ethernet networks below 10 Gbps and is most commonly deployed in 100 Mbps Ethernet. Due to its larger core diameter, OM1 offers strong light-gathering capability and good bending resistance. OM1 (62.5/125 μm) graded-index multimode fiber meets or exceeds the requirements of the ISO/IEC 11801-1 OM1 specification, the IEC 60793-2-10 A1-OM1 specification, and the TIA-492AAAF A1-OM1 specification.
