Segment Switching and Bridging from 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps to 1000 Mbps The Model GS524T switch, as illustrated in Figure 3-2, connects multiple power workgroups and servers using high-speed gigabit links. Each power workgroup is anchored by a NETGEAR Model FS518T switch. Other workgroups are connected by a NETGEAR FS524 switch. Because each copper link can be up to 100 m long, these workgroups can be located on separate floors. 24PORT 10/100MbpsGigabit Fiber Switch Ethernet Server with GA622T Gigabit network card Model GS524T switch MODELGS524T Figure 3-2.

The Model GS524T switch, as illustrated in Figure 3-2, connects multiple power
workgroups and servers using high-speed gigabit links. Each power workgroup is
anchored by a NETGEAR Model FS518T switch. Other workgroups are connected
by a NETGEAR FS524 switch.
Because each copper link can be up to 100 m long,
these workgroups can be located on separate floors.
