Network Topologies

The AT-FS708LE switch can be used in a variety of network topologies, such as a standalone or cascade. Both topologies are described below.

Standalone Topology

Figure 3 illustrates the standalone topology where each end-node is directly connected directly to a 10/100Base-TX port on an AT-FS708LE switch. This gives each end-node a dedicated 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps link.
