INTRODUCTION
In another example, an FOT-F3 (3, Fig. 1-3) is connected
to an MMAC (1) by an AUI cable (2) attached to an
Intelligent Repeater Module (IRM

) in the MMAC. A
lengthy fiber optic link segment (4), up to ten kilometers,
runs from the FOT-F3 and to a Cabletron Systems’
NB25 bridge (7). Through the bridge, the host device
communicates with other devices on a larger Ethernet
network attached to the bridge’s AUI port.
