Fiber Distributed Data Interface
OverviewDescriptionTopologyFrame formatDeploymentStandards
Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) is a standard for data transmission in a local area network. It uses optical fiber as its standard underlying physical medium. It was also later specified to use copper cable, in which case it may be called CDDI (Copper Distributed Data Interface), standardized as TP-PMD (Twisted-Pair Physical Medium-Dependent), also referred to as TP-DDI (Twisted-Pair Distributed Data Inter
This reference is intended for preliminary specialty-cable research. Compatibility, link budgets, fire performance, installation methods, test limits and applicable standards must be verified for the specific project.
