To establish a trunked line between two Catalyst 2950 switches, you should use an Ethernet cable with support for VLAN trunking. Typically, this would be a standard Ethernet cable with support for IEEE 802.1Q encapsulation to allow for the transmission of multiple VLANs over the same link.
Install a double-pole switch at the entrance and end of a hallway to control lighting from both sides. Wire a 3-core cable between the switches and connect the live wires to the common terminals, while the switched live wires are connected to the L1 and L2 terminals on each switch. The lighting circuit is wired to the common terminal on both switches. Utilize a two-way lighting circuit when controlling a single light fitting from two different switches. Connect a 3-core cable between the switches, with the live wire connected to the common terminal on both switches. Link L1 to L1 and L2 to L2 on each switch, and connect the lighting circuit to the common terminal on both switches. Employ a two-way and intermediate lighting circuit for controlling a single light fitting from three different switches. Wire a 4-core cable between the switches and light fitting, connecting the live wire to the common terminal on each switch. Link L1 to L1 and L2 to L2 on the two-way switches, and connect the common terminal on the intermediate switch to the lighting circuit. For a 4-way lighting circuit controlling a single light fitting from four different switches, use a 5-core cable between the switches and light fitting. Connect the live wire to the common terminal on each switch, and link L1 to L1 and L2 to L2 on the two-way switches. The common terminal on the intermediate switches is connected to the lighting circuit. If wiring multiple lights in a large room or area, consider using a combination of two-way, intermediate, and/or four-way lighting circuits as necessary to control the lighting from various switch locations. Plan the wiring scheme carefully to ensure proper functionality and compliance with electrical regulations.
SAN switches are at the heart of most SANs. SAN Switches can connect both servers and storage devices, and thus provide the connection points for the fabric of the SAN. • For smaller SANs, the standard SAN switches are called modular switches and can typically support 8 or 16 ports (though some 32-port modular switches are beginning to emerge). Sometimes modular switches are interconnected to create a fault-tolerant fabric. • For larger SAN fabrics, director-class switches provide a larger port capacity (64 to 128 ports per switch) and built-in fault tolerance.
In networking, a link typically refers to a physical or logical connection between two network devices, such as routers, switches, or computers. The distance covered by a link can vary depending on the type of connection (e.g., Ethernet, fiber optic) and the technology used. It can range from a few meters in a Local Area Network (LAN) to hundreds of kilometers in a Wide Area Network (WAN).

A trunk
• Access link: An access link is a link that is part of only one VLAN, and normally access links are for end devices. Any device attached to an access link is unaware of a VLAN membership. An access-link connection can understand only standard Ethernet frames. Switches remove any VLAN information from the frame before it is sent to an access-link device.• Trunk link: A Trunk link can carry multiple VLAN traffic and normally a trunk link is used to connect switches to other switches or to routers. To identify the VLAN that a frame belongs to, Cisco switches support different identification techniques (VLAN Frame tagging). Our focus for CCNA examination is on Inter-Switch Link (ISL) and 802.1Q.A trunk link is not assigned to a specific VLAN. Many VLAN traffic can be transported between switches using a single physical trunk link.

A VLAN trunk allows for data to travel across a single link between two devices even if the data is from multiple VLANs. This allows for reduced cabling needed as for you won't have to run multiple cables between switches in order to have up-links for every VLAN.
A physical router device with an interface that routes between two or more VLANs that are attached to a VLAN network segment by a trunk link. In other words a " router on a [ TRUNK ] " which is originating from switches with independent non routing VLANs.
Access like carry the single vlan information & Trunk link able to carry the multiple vlan information when frames are travels from trunk mani shanker
there are 2 available protocols used to encapsulate data traffic over a trunk link on a cisco switch 1. 802.1q is proprietary works only between 2 cisco switches 2. ISL is open standard works with any switch..
Technology wise there is no such difference.

In order to find more information about a KVM switch; I found this link very helpful. It is all about KVM switches. The pluses, the minus' and everything in between. www.kvm-switches-online.com/
you must ensure a loop free topology before disabling the spanning-tree protocol you must configure the same native VLAN on both ends of the trunk link
