Whilst apparently it seems as though you assume that you can 'mix' OM2' and patch them into a OM3 or OM4 link........it is likely that there will be an affect on the pulsed signal...........one of our recent delegates complained when he tested a link that had OM2 pigtails placed onto a an OM3 link.....guess what......there was a lot of light that essentially was propagating in the cladding that then subsequently ended up back into the core, that the test results were erroneous!!
Conclusions: dont mix your fibres - amongst other things, it may not test correctly let alone allow the pulsed light to carry the data.......so not a good idea!!!!!
