Network Aggregation Plan
With 24 parallel bridging ports (i.e., 24 distinct collision domains), the Matrix
V-Series PoE switch can collapse a complex network down into a single efficient
bridged node, increasing overall bandwidth and throughput.
When up to eight switch units are stacked together, they form a single “virtual” switch
containing up to 200 ports. The whole stack can be managed through the Master
unit using a single IP address.
In the figure below, the 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports in a switch stack are providing
100 Mbps connectivity for up to 72 segments. In addition, the stack is also
connecting several servers at 1000 Mbps.
