Note :
1. A pair of crossover UTP cables should be used at the same time for
one trunk connection. The length of each cable can be up to 100
meters.
2. When the switched ports are enabled as trunking ports, they can
only serve trunking function, but no other function.
3. The 16-port switch and 24-port switch can trunk to each other.
4. Since the trunking is proprietary, the switches do not support trunk
connection to other brands switches.
The following figure illustrates another example of trunk connections
between three switches:
