SFP for most usable types of fibre?

[Photogregor]

Hi,

I've got to ship two SG200-26 to a branch to connect to connect two floors. These floors are connected via fibre optic. But there up to now is no technician at this location so I don't know which type of fibre it is (SM, MM, 50 or 62,5). And I want to prepare everything as soon as possible. Is there any kind of SFP device for this switch, which is feasible for all kinds or which at least covers the most usable types of fibre?

Thanks,
Stefano

if you were using catalyst I would say your using multi-mode due to the distance not single and if its multi-mode its most likely lc-lc om3  but your using smb switches which are not that standard compared to the glc-sx-mm the closet I can see would be the MGBSX1

Good answer, now I know what I have to consider. Thanks a lot.
