3.3 Application

A switch can be used to overcome the hub to hub connectivity limitations as

well as improve overall network performance. Switches make intelligent

decisions about where to send network traffic based on the destination address of

the packet. As a result, the switch can significantly reduce unnecessary traffic.

The example below demonstrates the switch ability to segment the network.

The number of nodes on each segment is reduced thereby minimizing network

contention (collisions) and boosting the available bandwidth per port.
