workstations, 100 Mbps full-duplex connections to power users, and 1 Gbps

full-duplex connections to servers. In addition, connected IP phones and wireless

access points are receiving PoE power from the switch.

Network Aggregation Plan

With 24 parallel bridging ports (i.e., 24 distinct collision domains), a Gigabit switch

can collapse a complex network down into a single efficient bridged node, increasing

overall bandwidth and throughput.

In the figure below, the 10/100/1000BASE-T ports are providing 1000 Mbps

connectivity through cascaded switches. In addition, the switches are also

connecting several servers at 1 Gbps.
