 MMF only for things such as SAN deployments or interconnections between 
things in the same cabinet or cage.

 Anything out of the cabinet or cage always SMOF, it's just easier that 
way.

  Hi all,  
 I wanted to put a question to the community to help some University 
researchers.

 They are wanting to know how much, in DC's particularly people rollout MMF 
vs. SMF

 They're working on a technology to extend the capacity of Multi-Mode, to 
the speeds of Single-Mode - and want to know if there is a market for it.

 My gut however was that for a while, not many people bother rolling out 
MMF as the costs are rather similar when you compare it against comparable 
features.

 I for one haven't rolled out almost any MMF for a few years now, and I was 
wondering if that was similar for most others here.

 Thanks all for any feedback - on or off-list.

 PS... If anyone is into Virtual Reality, IoT, Wearables, etc... there is 
an event in Sydney tonight called Convergence (http://convergence.events/). 
If you are interested, register @ http://convergence.events/register and 
use theCode "Conv2 FinalVIP".  See you there if you can come.
