Aggregation
Enterprise Workgroup Aggregation
The Catalyst 3500 XL switches can be deployed in wiring
closets to aggregate workgroup networking devices such as
Ethernet and 10/100 switches; 10BaseT and 10/100 hubs;
and workgroup servers, as shown in Figure 7. The Catalyst
3524 XL and 3512 XL are well suited for customers who
need a 10/100 aggregation switch with Gigabit Ethernet
uplinks to backbone or servers. The eight Gigabit Ethernet
ports on the Catalyst 3508G XL make the switch ideal for
aggregating a group of 10/100 switches with Gigabit
Ethernet uplinks and Gigabit Ethernet servers in a
high-performance wiring closet aggregation configuration.
