Multimode vs Monomode
-----------------------------
I know that multimode optical fibers accept light rays with a wider range of acceptance angles than the monomode. Now for diff. wavelengths of light the relative refractive index varies and also do the critical angle. My question is can both mono and multimode accept various wavelengths the same way or is there any advantage using one over the other?
Also, what abt the submarine cable network, do we have monomode or multimode fibers over there?
