Stack Ports

The Catalyst 2975 switch ships with a 0.5-meter stack cable to connect the stack ports.

Caution

Use only approved cables, and connect only to other Catalyst 2975 switches. Equipment might be
damaged if connected to other nonapproved Cisco cables or equipment.

You can order these stack cables from your Cisco sales representative:

STACK-CAB-50CM-NH= (0.5-meter cable)

STACK-CAB-1M-NH= (1-meter cable)

STACK-CAB-3M-NH= (3-meter cable)

Console Port

You can connect the switch to a PC by means of the console port and the supplied RJ-45-to-DB-9 female
cable. If you want to connect the switch console port to a terminal, you need to provide an
RJ-45-to-DB-25 female DTE adapter. You can order a kit (part number ACS-DSBUASYN=) containing
that adapter from Cisco. For console port and adapter pinout information, see the

“Connector and Cable
