With 12 parallel bridging ports (i.e., 12 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 1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports on the switch are
providing 2 Gbps full-duplex connections for up to 12 local segments. In
addition, the switch is also connecting remote servers over fiber optic
cable at 2 Gbps.
