Data Stack Cabling Configurations
Data Stack Cabling Configurations
This is an example of a recommended configuration that uses the supplied 0.5-meter StackWise cable. In this
example, the switches are stacked in a vertical rack or on a table. This configuration provides redundant
connections. The configuration example uses the supplied 0.5-meter StackWise cable. The example shows
the full-ring configuration that provides redundant connections.
Figure 18: Data Stacking the Switches in a Rack or on a Table Using the 0.5-meter StackWise Cables
This example shows a recommended configuration when the switches are mounted side-by-side. Use the
1-meter and the 3-meter StackWise cables to connect the switches. This configuration provides redundant
connections.

Data Stack Bandwidth and Partitioning Examples
This section provides examples of data stack bandwidth and possible data stack partitioning. The figure shows
a data stack of switches that provides full bandwidth and redundant StackWise cable connections.
Figure 20: Example of a Data Stack with Full Bandwidth Connections
This figure shows an example of a stack of switches with incomplete StackWise cabling connections. This
stack provides only half bandwidth and does not have redundant connections.
