FiberLAN makes a box that sits beside the PC and plugs into an IBM or TI
token ring adapter card inside the PC.  The other side of the box connects
to fiber optics that interconnect all of these boxes.

The box is about the size of a small modem and is completely compatible
with the IBM software (it's transparant).  Don't know what it costs.

The phone number of FiberLAN is 919-549-6554.
