4. Network Application
This section provides you a sample of network topology in which the
DynaGST/1602G is used. In general, the DynaGST/1602G Gigabit Ethernet
switch is designed as a high-bandwidth backbone switch.
You can use the DynaGST/1602G to connect servers, switches,
workstations, and PCs to each other by connecting these devices directly to
the Switch. The Switch automatically learns node address, which are
subsequently used to filter and forward all traffic based on the destination
address. The Gigabit fiber port is designed to connect the Ethernet network
with a fiber network.
For enterprise networks where large data broadcasts are constantly
processed, this switch is an ideal link between departmental switches and
the core switch. All workstations can connect to departmental switches and
those switches are then connected to the DynaGST/1602G Gigabit Ethernet
switch. Now all the devices in this network can communicate with each
other. Connecting servers to the core switch is important because it allows
each workstation to access the server’s data.
This switch is a perfect for backbone connectivity.
