Current Status and Future Prospects of Fiber Optic Local Area Networks
Summary :
Fiber-optic local area networks (LANs) with Fiber Distributed Digital Interface (FDDI) protocol have come into use as backbones connecting other small LANs. This paper describes the current status of LANs, reviews a number of issues that stand in the way of further development and look at the future of LANs. Demands for wide-area networks (WANs) connecting LANs and multimedia LANs including voice and image capability has been extremely strong, spurring progress in geographical expansion and throughput increase, now over 100Mbit/s. The logical choice of transmission medium for next-generation systems is single-mode optical fiber, not only for backbone LANs but also, eventually, for floor LANs.
