On that note would you gents recommend single-mode or multimode fiber for buildings?
Single-mode, for sure. More predictable characteristics when you climb up the capacity scale, e.g., 10Gbps to 40Gbps to 100Gbps. We use plenty of multi-mode, but only in the data centre, between our own kit, for racks within the same cage. Between floors, multi-mode should be good for anywhere from 50m - 300m (100Gbps all the way down to 1Gbps), but why risk it? Mark.
