Can anyone out there tell me the specifications for FDDI over multimode
62.5/125 micron
fiber optic cable?  I will have 4,000+ ft of cable installed to extend
our Ethernet (FOIRL 
or 10Base-F) and want to insure that this cable can later be used for
FDDI.  I would expect 
to have to install new connectors for FDDI.  What specifications (maximum
attenuation, etc) 
would I give to a contractor to insure that both the cable and
installation are up to specs?

Thanks,
