1000Base Solution
You can upgrade your server with a Gigabit Ethernet NIC,
and introduce a Gigabit backbone switch too. This
contains several switch ports which provides much faster
access to your server with minimum disruption. See Figure
16.
Multiport Bridge with High-Bandwidth Backbone
With a MIL-S1000, you can divide large network to ease
congestion, and connect 10Base-T networks to 100Base-
TX or 100Base to 1000Base networks for more flexibility.
Adding your MIL-S1000 to a large network creates more
segments in that network. The MIL-S1000 built-in filtering
function separates a segment's local traffic from network
traffic, reducing the amount of network traffic and easing
congestion.
