An interrogation system includes a light signal switch and a reflection signal switch. The light signal switch may be communicatively coupled to an optical light source. The light signal switch may route a light signal generated by the light source downhole in a wellbore through a single-mode optical fiber cable or a multi-mode optical fiber cable. The reflection signal switch may be communicatively coupled to the single-mode optical fiber cable and the multi-mode optical fiber cable. The reflection signal switch may route a reflection of the light signal from the signal-mode optical fiber cable or the multi-mode optical fiber cable to an optical detector.
