Planning and Installing a Switch Stack (Optional)
Note
This section applies only to the Catalyst 2960-X and 2960-XR stacking-capable switches.
Stack Guidelines
• Connect only Catalyst 2960-X or 2960-S switches in a mixed switch stack.
You can only create mixed stacks with Catalyst 2960-X or 2960-S switches (up to four
Note
switches). You cannot create mixed stacks with other switches. Catalyst 2960-XR
switches cannot be added to mixed stacks. They can only stack with other Catalyst
2960-XR switches.
• Install the FlexStack-Plus module and the FlexStack cable.
Note
The FlexStack-Plus module is hot-swappable and can be inserted while the switch is
powered on.
• Order the appropriate cable from your Cisco sales representative. The length of FlexStack cable depends on your configuration.
These are the different sizes available:
◦ CAB-STK-E-0.5M= (0.5-meter cable)
◦ CAB-STK-E-1M= (1-meter cable)
◦ CAB-STK-E-3M= (3-meter cable)
• Make sure that you have access to the switch rear panel and to the rear of the rack.
Installing the FlexStack-Plus Module
The switch should always have a blank module installed when a FlexStack-Plus module is not used.
Note
The Catalyst 2960X-48P-L switch is shown as an example. You can install the module in other switches as shown.
