Upgrade to Mac OSX 10.11 (El Capitan) - two possible links

The link:


https://itunes.apple.com/app/os-x-el-capitan/id1147835434?mt=12


.. send the user to the upgrade link to Mac OSX 10.11 (El Capitan). It states "This version of OS X El Capitan is for users running OS X Snow Leopard or OS X Lion who would like to upgrade to macOS High Sierra. If you are running Snow Leopard or Lion and would like to upgrade to High Sierra, you need to install El Capitan first. This version of El Capitan can also be installed on Mac computers that are not compatible with High Sierra."


This suggests there is a different version that someone not wishing to upgrade to macOS High Sierra could use.


Can anyone provide me with this other link. I'm interested to know whether it's a much smaller downgrade.


Thank you.
