Chapter 4 Networking Applications

You can deploy S3100-52P Ethernet switch on many types of networks, such as
enterprise networks and broadband access networks. Following are several typical
networking applications.

4.1 Broadband Ethernet Access for Residential Communities

On the broadband access network of a residential community, an S3100-52P Ethernet
switch is located in the center. It is downlinked to S3100 series switches to reach the
Ethernet users and uplinked to a core Layer 3 switch through a GE extension module to
connect to the MAN backbone.
