Currently at customer site is OM1 Fiber. 1 MDF 4 IDF's, all Data rooms are connected via fiber, but customer is wanting to move from 1Gbps to 10Gbps or even 25 or 40Gbps if budget permits. In general we usually use SMF, but it looks like I would need to use MMF to get the bandwidth more easily through a MMF pair instead of aggregating multiple SMF's? or am I missing something?
Longest run of fiber from an IDF to another IDF would be 400ft. Most equipment onsite is Unifi gear. some of their 10gig aggregate fiber switches, and thinking of using Newer Unifi Switch Pro Agg switches with (28) 10G SFP's and (4) 25 Gbps SFP28 ports as the main connection/uplink in each IDF/MDF. And current plan would be to use USW-Enterprise XG-24 when available for the 10Gig switching to endpoints.
Is going a 12-18 Strand OM4 Fiber to each IDF the right way to move forward? Is my thought of that would be capable of 1/10/25/40/100Gbps per fiber pair with the corresponding hardware and SFP's?
