Does anyone know the difference between Polarization Maintaining Single-mode fiber (blue cable) and just normal single mode fiber (yellow cable).
I am installing some switches across someone else's fiber job. At site A they left the Blue style single mode fiber hanging...on the other side they left the yellow style single mode fiber.
We're not getting a link between the two switch and the fiber guy says the from patch panel to patch panel the fiber is clean.
Does anyone know does the fiber type have to be exactly the same all the way through?
