FDDI generally uses 62.5/125 fiber.
All of ours used 50/125. It has better performance, and it was the
standard when ours was installed. A lot of other UK installations were
done later, and used 62.5/125 because that was more common in Europe at
that time -- but they're now regretting it as 50/125 has become the
standard for Gigabit.
