Acting as a Desktop/Segment Switch
Figure 1-4 shows groups of power users connected to servers through BayStack
350T switches in a small network. Network managers who do not want to provide
each end station with the full 100 Mb/s bandwidth can designate a certain number
of users to share the full bandwidth provided by one port of the switch. For
example, one of the workgroups, connected to a 10BASE-T hub, is sharing
10 Mb/s bandwidth provided by one of the BayStack 350T switch ports.
