4.6 Sample Application
The optimal application for the Fast Ethernet Switch, no matter with the extension module
or not, is as a "big pipe" backbone interconnecting file servers with bandwidth-hungry
workgroups, departments, and offices.
In the figure, the first FNSW-1601(or FNSW-2401) links to an-other hub's Uplink (MDI-
II) port, some ports connect to 100Mbps Workstations, and attached to file servers at
200Mbps.
