In the topology illustrated in Figure 4, an AT-FS705E FC is used to connect
together four 10/100 Mbps Ethernet hubs. Here the switch functions as a
bridge between the different workgroups by controlling the flow of data
between the workgroups. The switch transfers an Ethernet frame from hub to
hub only when the destination node for the frame is on a different hub than
the node that originated the frame. This reduces the amount of unnecessary
data traffic in each workgroup. This frees up bandwidth and improves
network performance.
