Network Topologies
This section discusses the network topologies you can create with the
Converteon™ Fast and Gigabit Media Converter Line Cards.
Stand-Alone
Topology
Figure 15 illustrates a stand-alone topology using one AT-CV1000 media
converter with an AT-CM20x Series line card to interconnect two small
networks.
Network 1 has an AT-FS709FC switch connected to the 100Base-FX
port on the AT-CM202 line card in the AT-CV1000 media converter.
Network 2 has an AT-8524M switch connected to the 10/100Base-TX
port on the AT-CM202 line card in the AT-CV1000 media converter.
