Applications

This chapter presents an overview of the levels of service provided by incorporating the 
technology of the Model FS562/FS566 switch into your network. 

The Model FS562/FS566 switch is designed to provide flexibility in configuring your network 
connections. Each switch can be used as a standalone device or can be used with 10 Mbps or 
100 Mbps hubs or other interconnection devices in various configurations. The configuration 
examples in this chapter illustrate the integration of the Model FS562 Fiber Switch and the Model 
FS566 Fiber Switch in network environments of all sizes and types. These examples include a 
network of a few workstations connected to a printer or a segmented network with multiple users 
or workgroups and other networking devices.
