Client/Server Network Application

To improve workstation performance in a client/server environment, the VH-4802 switch can be configured to provide 200 Mbps full duplex Fast Ethernet connections to servers by connecting each to a dedicated switch port (Figure 1-4). Users can be accommodated through connections to hubs, both at 10Mbps and 100Mbps speeds, through 10Mbps switches with 100Mbps uplinks, or through direct connections. The fiber uplinks are available to connect the switch to a remote location, such as another building floor or a separate building.
