Network Topologies
The AT-FS708 switch can be used in a variety of network topologies, such
as a standalone or cascade. Both topologies are described below.
Standalone
Topology
Figure 3 illustrates the standalone topology where each end-node is
directly connected directly to a 10/100Base-TX port on an AT-FS708
switch. This gives each end-node a dedicated 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps link.
