If you are installing this switch in a stacked configuration, repeat this procedure for 
each switch until all switches have been installed in the stack, then proceed to 

Connecting High‐Speed Stacking Cables

” on page 3‐10. Otherwise, proceed to 

Connecting AC and RPS‐SYS Power

” on page 3‐15.

Connecting High-Speed Stacking Cables

The stack of switches can be connected in a ring or daisy chain topology. In a ring 
topology all the switches are connected. The only difference in the cable connections in a 
daisy chain topology is that one cable is not installed. Up to seven or eight switches can be 
stacked together and connected by high‐speed stacking cables. You can add switches and 
reach up to a maximum of 384 Ethernet ports per stack. The high‐speed stacking cables 
allow the entire stack to operate with a single IP address.
