In this example application the Switch connects different company departments
(RD and Sales) to the corporate backbone. It can alleviate bandwidth contention
and eliminate server and network bottlenecks. All users that need high bandwidth
can connect to high-speed department servers via the Switch. You can provide a
super-fast uplink connection by using a Gigabit Ethernet/mini-GBIC port on the
Switch.
