Abstract
Industry standards are being developed for fibre optic LANs for application within buildings and campus environments. An overview of key standards projects was presented, covering FDDI and fibre optic versions of Ethernet and Token-passing networks. The paper also included a brief report on the standardisation of individual components such as optical fibre, connectors and transmission devices.
