LANNING

This model contains one 100BASE-TX port and one 100BASE-FX

port. The 100BASE-FX port can be used to connect the switch

to a 100BASE-FX port on another switch or hub, making it part

of a high-speed fiber backbone. The longer allowable run

distance for fiber cable also makes the 100BASE-FX port useful

for connecting to remote devices. The 100BASE-TX port can be

used to provide a dedicated bandwidth (200 Mbps in full-duplex

mode) to a server or power user that is close to the switch.

In the following figure, the 100BASE-FX port is connected to a

remote central site and the 100BASE-TX port, to a server. The

aggregate bandwidth of this network is 580 Mbps.
