When network performance and bandwidth are an issue, Magnum 1000’s can
be configured with a Bridge Port Module, as shown in Figure 2.6c. In this diagram,
Figure 2.6c: Magnum 1000 Workgroup Hubs with local-isolation via rear BPMs.
each local-bridge-isolated workgroup is connected to a central concentrator through a
BPM with a fiber connector. Since each workgroup has its own printer and server, most
of the network traffic is kept local (i.e., is contained inside of each Magnum 1000 Hub
segment by the BPMs) and does not consume bandwidth on the rest of the network.
Refer to section 4.2, “Magnum 1000 BPM Local Bridge Functionality”, for more
information about the operation of the BPMs.
