Here is a link that shows where you can mix MM with SM and if a conditioning patch cord is needed (refer to Table 6).

Hope that helps.

Hello Sivakumar,
it doesn't work :
SM fiber acts as a narrower filter and will drop most of optical energy of the MM transmitter.
You need SM GBICs or SFPs to use SM fiber
Hope to help
