Hi,
I've never dealt with Fibre connections before. We're moving to a new office (2 stories Bldg). The 1st floor will have the current Production System (Ethernet connections / switches). In the ground floor we will create a backup system(most probably Ethernet connections / switches).
ATM they're running 12 Core Multi Mode Fibre Cables between both systems locations, they're about 45 - 50 Meters apart.
I'm planning to buy DELL 5524 Gigabit Switches with dual 10 Gbps fiber uplinks (SFP+).

Are these switches suffice to connect both systems via fibre cables?
How many Fibre cores do i need to terminate ?
What type of connectors should i use to terminate those cables?
What is the future benefit of having a 12 Core Multi Mode Fibre Cable?
Your advice and recommendations is much appreciated.
Thank you
