With 50 parallel bridging ports (i.e., 50 distinct collision domains), the
EdgeIron 4802CF can collapse a complex network down into a single
efficient bridged node, increasing overall bandwidth and throughput.
In the figure below, the 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports on the EdgeIron
4802CF are providing 100 Mbps connectivity for up to 48 segments. In
addition, the switch is also connecting servers at 200 Mbps.
