Each ONT end device just requires one strand of single mode fiber. And the connectors typically used in passive optical LAN are SC/APC angle polish connectors. Note: some manufacturers now offer a way to leverage multimode fiber in applications where the fiber plant...

In a Passive Optical LAN each ONT end device requires one strand of single-mode fiber. The connectors typically used in passive optical LAN are SC/APC angle polish connectors on the end. If you have existing single mode in your backbone, then you’re halfway...

Passive optical LAN (POL) architectures primarily use single-mode fiber because of the medium’s high capacity and ability to support long link lengths — up to 20 km. In a POL architecture. In a POL, a passive single-mode fiber network runs down to the...

Most likely you are looking at either OM4 or OM5 multimode fibers. Of course single mode will always be an option, but on the multimode side you have OM5 fiber, which is optimized for the short wave division multiplexing (SWDM) so depending on the distances you need...
