Installation Guide for the Model FE104 and Model FE108 Fast Ethernet Hubs
Multiport Switch with Fast Ethernet Backbone
If the 10 Mbps shared repeater portion of the network experiences congestion, you can use the
Model SW507 Ethernet Switch with six 10 Mbps ports and one 100 Mbps port to segment the
10 Mbps traffic on the hubs. As illustrated in Figure 5-3, adding the switch increases overall
bandwidth and throughput because the traffic from one 10 Mbps segment passes to the other
segment only when addressing a node on one of the other segments.
