4. If you wish to implement stack redundancy, use the Redundant Cable to connect the port

marked “to lower unit" on the bottom switch to the port marked “to upper unit"" on the top
switch of the stack.

5. Power up the added modules.

!

CAUTION:

CAUTION:

Do not cross connect two switches with two Octaplane (light-colored) cables. If
you wish to cross-connect for redundancy, use one light-colored Octaplane cable
and one black redundancy cable. The black cable will then serve as a redundant
connection.

!

CAUTION:

CAUTION:

To prevent EMI, cover any unused ports on the stacking modules using the grey
plugs provided. Insert the plug labelled "left" into the lower port; insert the plug
labelled "right" into the upper port. See

Figure 14

.

Tip:

Tip:

You can build a logical stack of up to ten C360 switches. If you do not wish to
stack all the switches in a single rack, use long Octaplane cables to connect the
two physical stacks.
