For example, you could use an HP ProCurve Switch 5304xl 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. With a Gigabit-SX Module, for example, in the Switch 5304xl, the entire switched topology could be connected to a campus backbone, as shown in the illustration above. 2-27
