CrossFire 8600/8605 Token-Ring Switches v. 1.2, P/N: 710001641
Preparing for Installation
Figure 9. A Simple Application of the Switch
Some large, multisegment, hierarchical Token-Ring networks experience
congestion at the campus backbone level. Although this congestion can often be
relieved by converting the backbone to a higher speed, shared-media protocol or by
installing additional bridges or dual backbones to eliminate bottlenecks, the
CrossFire 8600 switch and/or the CrossFire 8605 switch offer dedicated-media that
might be longer lived or more economical if you eventually need higher demand
applications.
Figure 10 on the next page illustrates a typical network without the CrossFire 8600
or the CrossFire 8605 switch. This network is a three-level, hierarchical, campus
network. Figure 11 and Figure 12 offer several alternatives for using
the CrossFire 8600 or the CrossFire 8605 switch.
