Central Wiring Closet | SMC Networks SMC6724L3 INT instruction

APPLICATION EXAMPLES

Central Wiring Closet

With 26 parallel bridging ports (i.e., 26 distinct collision domains), this switch can collapse a complex network down into a single efficient bridged node, increasing overall bandwidth and throughput.

In the figure below, the 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports on the switch are providing 100 Mbps connectivity for up to 24 segments. In addition, the switch is also connecting servers at 100 Mbps.
