Introduction This section briefly describes several application examples for the PathBuilder S24x,
26x, and 27x switch.
Performance
Branch Nodes
Because of its high performance capabilities, the PathBuilder S24x, 26x, and 27x
switch can be employed in a variety of branch node applications. For example, the
PathBuilder S24x, 26x, and 27x switch can support a mix of voice and data types,
traditional legacy (SDLC, X.25, Bisync, Async, etc.), and LAN. Because of its high
throughput, the PathBuilder S24x, 26x, and 27x switch can be used in situations
where large file transfers, fast response time, and high numbers of users are the
norm. Figure 1-2 is an example of a typical branch node application.
Furthermore, the PathBuilder S24x, 26x, and 27x switch is designed to meet the
needs of an expanding network. With its large RAM capacity and high-speed
processor, the PathBuilder S24x, 26x, and 27x switch can easily adapt to a growing
network with little or no additional hardware.
