Network Topologies
The AT-FS724L switch can be used in a variety of network topologies, such as
a power workgroup or cascade. Both topologies are described below.
Power Workgroup Topology
A power workgroup topology, shown in Figure 2, allows each end-node to
directly connect to a 10/100Base-TX port on an AT-FS724L switch. This gives
each end-node a dedicated 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps link.
