Stack Topology
Types of Stack Topology
The units in a stack can be connected in one of the following types of topologies:
•
Chain Topology—One stack port (either left or right) of the first unit is
connected to the stack port in the second unit. This is continued until all
units in the stack are connected (except for the first and last one).
Figure 2
shows a chain topology:
