Installing the Switch
Sample Network Topologies for Non-PoE+ Switches
As a Segment Switch
Figure 2-21. Segment network configuration
The E2620 Switches also work well as segment switches. That is, with their
high performance, they can be used for interconnecting network segments—
simply connect the network devices that form those segments to the E2620
Switches.
In the illustration above, two “Fast Ethernet” switches with PCs, printers, and
local servers attached, are both connected to a Switch E2620-48. The devices
attached to the two desktop switches can now communicate with each other
through the switch. They can also all communicate with the server that is
connected to a 1000Base-T port on the switch.
