FIBER OPTIC NETWORKS DEFINITION (continued): …  intention of creating a new Media Access Control layer for fiber optic rings. The IEEE working group is part of the IEEE's local area network (LAN) and metropolitan area network (MAN) Committee. Fiber optic rings are widely deployed as part of both MANs and wide area networks (WANs); however, these topologies are dependent on protocols that aren't optimized or scalable to meet the demands of packet-switched networks. …
