This section provides a sample of network topology in which the switch is used as a 
high-bandwidth backbone. The switch is an ideal upgrade for 100Mbps Ethernet 
networks. You can connect existing switches, hubs or computers with Gigabit 
1000Base-T Ethernet adapters to the switch.  

The following figure depicts a typical backbone application of the switch in an 
enterprise environment. Workgroup A, Workgroup B, the standalone workstation with 
gigabit Ethernet adapter and the two servers can all communicate with each other at 
speed reaching 1000Mbps.
