Chapter 1 Overview
Network Configuration Examples
–
1000BASE-ZX GBIC: fiber connections of up to 328,084 ft (100 km)
–
1000BASE-T GBIC: copper connections of up to 328 ft (100 m)
–
Catalyst 2900 XL 1000BASE-T: copper connections of up to 328 ft (100 m)
• Redundant Gigabit backbone—Using HSRP, you can create backup paths between
Catalyst 4908G-L3 switches. To enhance network reliability and load balancing for different
VLANs and subnets, you can connect the Catalyst 2900 XL and Catalyst 3500 XL switches, again
in a star configuration, to two backbone switches. If one of the backbone switches fails, the second
backbone switch preserves connectivity between the switches and network resources.
