AT-FS709FC Series Installation Guide

If you need to connect together multiple AT-FS709FC Series switches, you
might again consider constructing a collapsed backbone topology. But rather
than using an AT-FS709FC switch as the backbone switch, you could use a
Fast Ethernet switch that has multiple fiber optic ports and connect the
AT-FS709FC Series switches using the fiber optic ports. Since the fiber optic
port on the AT-FS709FC Series switch has a maximum operating distance of 2
kilometers (1.25 miles), you can connect together switches that are physically
separated by large distances.
An example of this topology is illustrated in Figure 5. Eight AT-FS709FC
Series Ethernet switches have been interconnected using an AT-8216FXL
Fast Ethernet Switch.
