Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) Physical Layer Medium Dependent (PMD) (formerly ANSI X3.166-1989 (R2000))

Specifies Physical Layer, Medium Dependent (PMD) requirements for the Fibre Distributed Data Interface (FDDI). The FDDI provides a high-bandwidth (100 Mbit/s) general-purpose interconnection among computers and peripheral equipment using fibre optics as the transmission medium. The FDDI may be configured to support a sustained transfer rate of approximately 80 Mbit/s (10 Mbyte/s). It may not meet the response time requirements of all unbuffered high-speed devices. The FDDI establishes the connection among many FDDI nodes (stations) distributed over distances of several kilometers in extent. Default values for FDDI were calculated on the basis of 1 000 physical connections and a total fibre path length of 200 km.
