(Mbps) and 100 Mbps links to your network devices, such as
workstations, servers, printers, and routers.

ˆ

Interconnecting Ethernet hubs or switches to provide a bridge between
the different workgroups of your network.

ˆ

Connecting to other Ethernet switches so that they can be part of a
larger Ethernet network.

Maximizing your existing network by providing full-duplex operation
over a twisted pair port.
