VCS Stacking
Modules, Cables, and Connections
The stacks are connected via the stacking ports on the VCS Stacking
Modules (AT-StackXG), which are installed in the back of each switch.
The following cables are used to connect the stacking ports of x600 series
switches:
ˆ
High Speed Stacking Cables (0.5 meter) - StackXG/0.5
ˆ
High Speed Stacking Cables (1.0 meter) - StackXG/1
This configuration, shown in Figure 24, uses two switches that are
connected back to back via two high-speed stacking links. Note that
stacking ports labeled 1 must connect to stacking ports labeled 2. In this
configuration the stack can still function using only a single high speed
link.
