This shows a medium-sized office using a
combination of all SuperStack II Baseline
products. A mix of switched and shared
10 Mbps and 10/100 Mbps delivers
higher performance connections where
they are needed, while keeping the
overall system cost to a minimum.
In the basement,
a single SuperStack II
Baseline 10/100 switch provides 100
Mbps switched links to the floors
and to each of the main servers.
On floor 1,
a SuperStack II Baseline
switch and a Baseline hub provide a
mix of switched 10 Mbps and shared
100 Mbps network connections. Users
requiring the highest possible
performance from a 10 Mbps link are
given switched connections to their
desktops while those with less demand
on network access have 10 Mbps shared
links to the hub. Access to a local server
is provided via the second 100 Mbps
connection from the Baseline Switch.
On floor 2,
SuperStack II Baseline
Dual Speed Hubs provide 10/100 Mbps
auto-sensing connections to each of the
network connections to workgroups that
have a mixture of 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps
network devices.
