I work for a fairly large campus.  The buildings are connected to
12' x 24' concrete shacks we call comsheds.  The comsheds terminate
2 1/2" multi tube duct which gets filled with various appropriate
media.  The duct goes from com shed to com shed.  To date the inter
com shed distance has not exceeded 1500'.  We are about to span
5 kilometers to reach an in-the-boonies section of the campus.

We think we want to span this distance using single mode fiber.  To
that end we have ordered a six fiber bundle.  Now the question is
what to stick on the ends of the fiber :-)

One engineering approach would be to implement FDDI over singlemode.
We have FDDI capable routers, what do we need to use FDDI over
singlemode?

Thank you!
