Power Workgroups

The BayStack 70 Series 10/100 Ethernet Switch increases bandwidth for power, or high-density, workgroups and strengthens network throughput.

As shown in Figure 2-5, a BayStack 70-24T 10/100 Ethernet Switch connects to several BayStack switches, as well as high-density end stations and servers. End users can use 10 Mb/s or 100 Mb/s connections throughout this network, as determined by their bandwidth requirements.
