 Cisco Catalyst 2800 series switch connects Ethernet connections to workstations, 100Base-T servers and 10Base-T hubs. The switch can support upto 25 connections. Each workstation or hub is directly connected to a Catalyst 2820 port at 10 M bps. The workstations connected to a hub share 10 M bps available bandwidth. Two 100-M bps servers are connected to the switch at 100 M bps. These servers are available to all the workstations in the workgroup.
