29、r (b) A Physical Layer Media Dependent (PMD), which specifies the lower sublayer of the Physical Layer for FDDI, including the power lev- els and characteristics of the optical transmitter and receiver, interface optical signal requirements including jitter, the connector receptacle footprint, the r

30、equirements of conforming FDDI optical fibre cable plants, and the permissible bit error rates; (c) A Physical Layer protocol (PHY), which specifies the upper sublay- er of the Physical Layer for the FDDI. PHY presents the specifications and services provided for conforming FDDI attachment devices a

31、nd specifies the data encode/decode, framing, and clocking requirements. PHY also specifies the elasticity buffer, smoothing, and repeat filter functions.

33、al layer medium dependent, ANSI X3.166) have been approved and published. In addition, FDDI standards are being pro- cessed as International Standards by standards committee ISO/IEC JTCl/SC 25. International Standards for PHY, MAC, and PMD (IS0 9314- 1 :1989, 9314-2:1989 and ISO/IEC 9314-3:1990, res

34、pectively) have also been published. Standards for the enhancement of PHY and MAC, called PHY-2 and MAC- 2, are also in process. These include miscellaneous updates identified by X3T9.5, including the changes that were required in MAC and PHY for extensions to FDDI, such as FDDI-II and MAC bridging.

35、 Two extensions to the basic FDDI have been developed as American National Standards.

Conditions may exist in parts of the network which may cause the Path to be in a different

41、ring (e.g. Secondary Path instead of Primary Path). 3.23 primitive: An element of the services provided by one entity to another. 3.24 receiver (optical): An opto-electronic circuit that converts an optical signal to an electrical logic signal. 3.25 repeater: A physical-layer relay in an FDDI networ

When the trunk forms a closed loop it is sometimes called a trunk ring. 3.36 tree: A physical topology consisting of a hierarchy of master-slave connections between a concentrator and other FDDI nodes (including subordinate concentrators). 4 Conventions and abbreviations 4.1 Conventions

49、The terms SMT, MAC, LLC, PHY, and PMD when used without modifiers, refer specifically to the local entities. The terms node, station, concentrator and repeater are used as follows in this standard. The term node is used as a generic term to denote any active element in an FDDI network. Station is used to denote a node that has at least one MAC. Concentrator is used to denote any node that has concentrator capability. The terms station and concentrator thus overlap such that some nodes may be referred to by either term. In this case, the te
