FDDI: current issues and future plans

Published: 01 September 1993 Publication History

Abstract

Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI), a set of standards developed by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) X3T9.5 Task Group, is reviewed. The timed token access method, used to share the medium among stations in this 100-Mbit/s local area network (LAN), differs from the traditional token access method in that the time for the token to walk around the ring is accurately measured by each station and used to determine the usability of the token. FDDI-II, which provides support for isochronous service in addition to the asynchronous and synchronous service provided by FDDI, the media-dependent physical layer (PMD) standard called low-cost fiber PMD (LCF-PMD), and the implementation of FDDI on the synchronous optical network (SONET) are discussed
