Interconnecting Isolated Collision Domains
Isolated collision domains within a stacked system can be
combined into an interconnected network using the Switch Port
Modules. For example, you can connect all of the different
collision domains in the stack using several Switch Port Modules
as shown below. Each Switch Port Module serves as a bridge
between isolated collision domains in the stack. Using this
approach, you provide a higher bandwidth by using three separate
collision domains, but still permit stations to communicate with
nodes in other isolated collision domains, as required. The
following figure shows how bandwidth has been raised from
100Mbit/s to 300Mbit/s.
