Cascade Topology
Connecting two similar networking devices together is called ‘cascading’.
Figure 3 illustrates this topology where Port 24 on the AT-FS724L switch is
connected to Port 8 on the AT-FS716 switch. Since Port 24 is wired as auto
MDI/MDI-X, a crossover or straight-through Category 5 or better twisted pair
cable can be used.
