Switch Overview
The AT-3726XL and AT-3716XL are stand-alone, managed Ethernet 
switches for desktop and workgroup applications. They implement direct 
high-speed server and backbone connections. With built-in management, 
they provide seamless management capability via local or remote (Telnet) 
Omega management software as well as SNMP and web-based 
management). These switches deliver a significant step up in 
performance to attached 10Base-T hubs and direct-connected 
workstations, while protecting existing 10Base adapter card investments.

Workgroup Switch Configuration
This configuration shows the AT-3726XL switch used for a group of 
heavy-traffic users in a large corporate network. In this example, the 
switch is brought to the desktop with a single end-station per switch port. 
A local server is connected to the 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet link and the 
optional 100 Mbps port connects to the corporate ba ckbone.
