1303.0. "Can FDDI cable connect 90FA's??" by TKOV51::AOKI_H (Hiromitsu AOKI, Network Team/SE, Japan DEC) Mon Apr 04 1994 04:44

	Is it possible to use the same MMF or SMF FDDI cable for
	interconnection between DECrepeaterFA's ?

	Aoki-san, You can use MMF as far as the fiber has "dual window" perfomance specification, i.e. both for 1300nm and 850nm of wavelength. FDDI uses 1300nm and Ethernet(802.3 FOIRL and 10BASE-F) uses 850nm. Kenji

Aoki-san,
