Step 3. Stack Switches

If your switch is licensed for 20 ports, or you have activated the 10-Gbps ports using the mPort Technology feature in

Enterprise Fabric Suite 2007, you can connect up to six switches together through the 10-Gbps ports using XPAK switch

stacking cables. Stacking provides performance and fail-over while preserving ports for devices.

❑ For a 2-switch stack, use two 3-inch stacking cables.

❑ For a 3-switch stack, use two 3-inch stacking cables and one 9-inch stacking cable.

❑ For a 4-switch stack, use three 3-inch stacking cables and three 9-inch stacking cables.

❑ For a 5-switch stack, use four 3-inch stacking cables and four 9-inch stacking cables.

❑ For a 6-switch stack, use two 3-inch stacking cables and six 9-inch stacking cables.

❑ Remove the 10-Gbps port covers according to the instructions provided with the stacking cables. Connect 2, 3, 4,

5, or 6 switches into stacks.
