FDDI is a broad topic but if we want to describe in short then :
FDDI is a token ring network in which fiber optics cable is used as channel. there are three condition to design such a network-
1) there is a pair of fiber channel should passes to all the stations i.e. each host should have a pair of fiber optics cable(but should connected to only from one)
2)both channel should use same token
3)routing direction of both channel should be different.
the advantage of above three condition that if channel break down somewhere then we need to just short both channel and it will act as a single token ring channel.
Fiber Distributed Data Interface. . .
That is fiber optic cable, as FDDI stands for Fiber Distributed Data Interface
William E Burr has written: 'Planning for the fiber distributed data interface (FDDI)' -- subject(s): Planning, Fiber Distributed Data Interface (Computer network standard), Local area networks (Computer networks)
Fiber Distributed Data Interface It's a local area network technology that uses Fiber cable. It can support thousands of users so it's ideal for very large local area networks.
The acronym FDDI stands for Fiber Distributed Data Interface, which provides enhanced data transmission in a local area network.
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.
Fiber distributed data interface used in lan.
Token Ring (IEEE 802.5) FDDI (Fiber Distributed Data Interface) Actually came across this as I was checking my answer for a Networking final.
For a local area network (LAN), CDDI (Copper Distributed Data Interface) is a standard for data transmission based on FDDI (Fiber Distributed Data Interface) that uses shielded twisted-pair (STP) or unshielded twisted pair (UTP) copper wire instead of fiber optic lines. CDDI supports a dual-ring capacity of 200 Mbps. CDDI's maximum distance is up to 200 meters, which is much shorter than FDDI. CDDI is defined by the American National Standards Committee X3-T9.5 and conforms to the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model of functional layering. CDDI is officially named the Twisted-Pair Physical Medium Dependent (TP-PMD) standard and is also referred to as Twisted Pair Distributed Data Interface (TP-DDI).
