Local Backbone Application
The VH-8TX1UM/VH-8TX1MF switch can be used in a local backbone
application, connecting network segments together and providing file-
server access (Figure 1-4). Workgroup hubs are provided with a single
connection to the switch while servers are put on dedicated 100 Mbps
ports. Routers and other networking devices can connect off of the
switched backbone as well. The fiber uplink is available to connect the
switch to a remote location, such as another building floor or a separate
building.
