Stack Cable Cisco STACK-T2-1M

stack or stacking network switches — this is a connection of two or more managed switches, designed to increase the number of ports, while the resulting group is identified by the rest of the network devices as one logical switch — has one IP address, one MAC-the address.

Usually the stack is used to connect the increasing number of network machines on the local network.. Local network management is increasing slightly, since the network administrator continues to manage one logical switch.

Commitment switches to a stack for different switches is carried out in the following ways.:

• Using dedicated switch ports for stacking (with a special cable)
• With patch cables Ethernet (including several for a multiple increase in speed); at the same time, in the switch settings, the ports connected by this cable are declared ports for stacking
• Using cables with terminations SFP, GBIC etc..
