OVERVIEW
The FDCMIM is a concentrator module that resides in an MMAC
network hub containing a Flexible Network Bus (FNB). The FDCMIM
acts as a modular component in a Dual Attached Concentrator.
FDCMIMs (and their attached stations) gain access to an FDDI dual
ring network through an FDMMIM, FDMMIM-04, FDMMIM-24, or
FDMMIM-30 the Cabletron Systems X3T9.5 compliant Dual Attached
Concentrator and Ethernet to FDDI Bridge Media Interface Modules.
The FDCMIM connects to the FDMMIM through the FDDI portion of
the MMAC Flexible Network Bus.
