This paper is an overview of the work currently in progress aimed at developing a fault tolerant local area network (LAN) for use in future space systems. The work was started in 1985 with a contract from ESTEC (European Space Research and Technology Centre) entitled 'Study, Design, Manufacture, and Test of a High Speed Data Bus'. The network was to be capable of handling data at up to 200 Mbits/sec, serve upto 100 users, with the maximum distance between network nodes of 100 metres. The use of optical fibres as the transmission medium was preferred, as it offers many advantages in addition to being capable of transmitting data at high rates.
