You can use the SmartGST-801M to connect PCs, workstations, and
servers to each other by connecting these devices directly to the
Switch. All the devices in this network can communicate with one
another. Connecting servers to the backbone switch allows other
users to access the server s data.
The SmartGST-801M automatically learns node addresses, which
filter, and forward all traffic based on the destination address. You
can use any of the Fiber ports to connect with another switch or hub
to interconnect each of your small switched workgroups to form a
larger and long distance switched network.
