What is difference between fddi and 802.5 token ring?

Fddi can be further connected to other networks whereas token ring is individual network of computers.


Which network architecture can automatically correct for cable failures?

Token Ring and FDDI networks can.


What is the difference between fddi-i and fddi-ii?

FDDI 1 vs FDDI 2Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) is a data transmission standard for Local Area Networks (LAN) which uses fiber optic lines. A FDDI LAN can extend up to 200 kilometers and it can support thousands of users. The FDDI 1 protocol is based on the token ring protocol. FDDI 2 is an extended version of FDDI. It extends FDDI by adding capability to handle voice and video signals.Difference between FDDI 1 and FDDI 2 (FDDI ii)FDDI-2 is the second generation protocol of FDDI. The key difference between them is that, in addition to all the functionality FDDI provides, FDDI-2 provides the ability to handle voice signals and video. Even though both FDDI and FDDI-2 runs at 100 Mbits/sec on the fiber and transport asynchronous and synchronous types of frames, FDDI-2 can transport isochronous traffic using the newly developed hybrid mode. Further, FDDI and FDDI-2 stations can be operated in the same ring only in the basic FDDI mode


Is FDDI a ring netwok?

FDDI is a dual-ring structure, usually found in MANs (metropolitan area networks). Although it has a physical ring structure it is not the same as a token ring network.


What speed does FDDI use?

FDDI (Fiber Distributed Data Interface) operates at a speed of 100 Mbps (megabits per second). It utilizes a dual-ring architecture for redundancy, allowing data to be transmitted in both directions. This design helps maintain network reliability and performance, even in the event of a failure in one of the rings. FDDI is primarily used for high-speed networking in local area networks (LANs) and can support long-distance connections.


What is fddi nic?

Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) NICs are commonly used to connect host systems or file servers to FDDI network equipment using one connectin (single attachment) and to attach the network equipment to the FDDI cabling through two attachments (dual attachment). FDDI is defined by the ANSI X3T9.5 standards committee and provides an access method to enable high-capacity data throughput on busy networks. It has a data throughput rate of 100Mbps, and is simliar to the token ring access method because it uses token passing for network communication.


At what speed does FDDI run?

Typically FDDI runs at 100 Mbps


What is the maximum size if an FDDI network?

The maximum size of an FDDI (Fiber Distributed Data Interface) network can support up to 1,000 nodes. It utilizes a dual-ring topology with a maximum cable length of 200 kilometers for the primary ring and 100 kilometers for the secondary ring. FDDI operates at a speed of 100 Mbps and is primarily used for high-speed data transmission in local area networks (LANs).

Which kind of cabling does FDDI use?

That is fiber optic cable, as FDDI stands for Fiber Distributed Data Interface


What does FDDI or Fiber Disturbed Data Interface refer to?

FDDI refers to Fiber Disturbed Data Interface. Most people will just say FDDI for short. Most hoping, that the person in conversation knows what it stands for.
