I see you're getting responses so I won't go into equipment. Be aware though that the MTU of FE is 1500 bytes, and the MTU of FDDI is 4470 (defaults of course). You can be hurt by this difference. GigE does not have that issue, if that's an option.

Howdy all. We are about to install a new VXR, however it came to our attention that FDDI is not compatable with it at all. Unfortunately, we need to connect FDDI to this router. Has anyone seen a cheap switch or converter that has both FDDI and Fast Ethernet on it? I know I can do a 4700, but thats large, expensive and clunky...Any ideas?
