Network Applications

This section provides samples of network topology in which the switches can be used.
This model switch is generally used as a desktop, workgroup or edge segment switch.
The switch has been designated as a segment switch which has a large address table
(8K MAC addresses) providing high performance for connecting network segments.
The uplink port (Gigabit combo port) provides connection to another switch in either fiber
or copper to form a large switched network. The eight PoE ports inject power into the
UTP cables supplying power for edge devices.
The following figure illustrates an example for a PoE application:
