6850/6850E Series Stacks
In addition to their working as individual stand-alone switches, an OmniSwitch can also be linked together
to work as a single virtual chassis known as a
stack
. With stacks, users can easily expand their switching
capacity simply by adding additional switches to the stack. In addition, stacks provide enhanced resiliency
and redundancy features.
