cascade their console port together for the configuration utility to configure all cascaded switches via one
console port. See Figure 3 for the cabling of cascaded HomePNA switches for more details.
Figure 2 Cabling of more DYNAMIX DH - 114/DYNAMIX DH - 114 M
The other way to stack more DYNAMIX DH - 114s is applying Ethernet Switch that
supports Port-Based VLAN
.
This connection can achieve maximum available bandwidth utilization for all users (max 10Mbps per user) if the
Ethernet Switch supports Giga bit rate up-link trunk. Note that E1 port is up-link port of DYNAMIX DH -
114/DYNAMIX DH - 114 M. Also cascade their console port together for the configuration utility to configure all
cascaded switches via one console port. See the following Figure 4,
Figure 4 Cabling of more DYNAMIX DH - 114/DYNAMIX DH - 114 M by Ethernet Switch
Note that in the stacking switch architecture as in Figure 3/Figure 4, the PNA switch
‘#1’ (ID is 1) must be
DYNAMIX DH - 114 M
if you need remote configuration capability. And other switches except ‘#1’ must be
