Installing the Switch
Sample Network Topologies for Non-PoE+ Switches
The simpler desktop and segment networks shown in the previous two
examples can easily be combined and expanded. For example, you could use
a HP E5406 zl Switch to interconnect each of your smaller switched
workgroups to form a larger switched network. All the devices in this network
can communicate with each other. For example, with Gigabit-SX Mini-GBICs
installed in a Mini-GBIC Module, in the E5406 zl Switch, the entire switched
topology could be connected to a campus backbone, as shown in the
illustration above.
Note In the Figure 2-22, the 1000 Mbps fiber-optic connection between the E2620
Switches and the 5406 zl Switch is by way of a Gigabit-SX mini-GBIC installed
in the E2620 Switches connected to a Gigabit SX mini-GBIC installed in the
mini-GBIC Module in the 5406 zl Switch.
