One source for PC network adapter cards using fiber optics is Codenall Technology Corp., 1086 North Broadway, Yonkers, NY 10701; (914)965-6300. According to reports I've read (InfoWorld, 6/23/86, p.13 and LOCALnetter, April 86, p.75) they have two primary products for PCs: one developed with Sytek for the PC Network (2 Mbps) and another developed with 3Com for Ethernet (10 Mbps). It isn't clear from these reports if you can use the fiber link for really high-speed communications between PCs. Paul Knight (I just *work* with Ted :-))
