Placement of the Switch

Applications

This Switch segments your network, significantly increasing both bandwidth
and throughput. Each port on the Switch can be attached to any Ethernet,
Fast Ethernet, or Gigabit Ethernet device, such as another switch, or a
server's network adapter. All ports operate at 10/100Mbps full and half
duplex, providing up to 200Mbps of bandwidth to the attached device.
Bridging Functions
This Switch provides fully transparent bridging functions. It automatically
learns node addresses that are subsequently used to filter and forward
all traffic based on the destination address. When traffic passes between
devices attached to the same shared collision domain, those packets are
filtered from the Switch. But when traffic must be passed between unique
segments (i.e., different ports on the Switch), the high-speed switching
fabric forwards the packets at near-zero latency.
Switching Functions
Store-and-forward switching is used to forward traffic to other ports. This
scheme ensures data integrity and provides a clean data stream.
Sample Application
This Switch is designed to operate as a small workgroup switch. It can
provide 10- or 100Mbps connections to workstations and to high-speed
servers. It can also provide a 100Mbps uplink to the network backbone.
