The other way to stack more XL-HB14128Ms is applying the Gigabit Ethernet Switch. This connection can achieve
the maximum available bandwidth utilization for Gigabit rate up-link trunk. Note that port E1 is the up-link trunk of
XL-HB14128M. Also connect their console port together for the MAP Sync Clock to synchronize all switches. See the
following Figure 4.

Note that in the stacking switch architecture as Figure 3/Figure 4, the HomePNA switch
‘#1’
will generate and output
the MAP Sync Clock for all other switches. You can cascade their console port by Cascaded Console Cable as Figure
3; or you can connect all the console port together as Figure 4. You may re-wire the console line in Figure 4 to the
wiring way in Figure 3(Change the green wiring).
