1000Base Solution
You can upgrade your server with a Gigabit Ethernet NIC, and introduce a Gigabit backbone switch too. This contains several switch ports which provides much faster access to your server with minimum disruption. See Figure 16.
Multiport Bridge with High-Bandwidth Backbone
With a MIL-S1000, you can divide large network to ease congestion, and connect 10Base-T networks to 100Base- TX or 100Base to 1000Base networks for more flexibility. Adding your MIL-S1000 to a large network creates more segments in that network. The MIL-S1000 built-in filtering function separates a segment's local traffic from network traffic, reducing the amount of network traffic and easing congestion.
