Network Aggregation Plan
When used in standalone mode, the MIL-SM4804G provides 52 parallel bridging
ports (i.e., 52 distinct collision domains), which can be used to collapse a complex
network down into a single efficient bridged node, increasing overall bandwidth and
throughput.
You can stack up to four MIL-SM4804G switch units together, forming a single
“virtual” switch containing up to 200 ports. The whole stack can be managed through
the Master unit using a single IP address.
In the figure below, the 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports on the MIL-SM4804G switch
are providing 100 Mbps connectivity for up to 24 segments. In addition, the switch is
also connecting several servers at 1000 Mbps.
