•
Non-blocking AV switching is not guaranteed even if the switches have multiple 10G, 40G or even
100G stacking links.
•
Major switch vendors feature different stacking over Ethernet options such as:
o
Stackwise Virtual Link offered by Cisco.
o
SummitStack stacking technology from Extreme OS.
o
Netgear 4300 Series easily supports stacking over Ethernet.
•
There is no industry standard for stacking where some vendors utilize certain port modes, while
others implement dedicated high-speed links for stacking. Regardless of the stacking
implementation, there is a finite bandwidth with these links and attention must be paid not to
exceed the available bandwidth when routing AV between switches.
