Does a stacked cable require an optical module

Home / Does a stacked cable require an optical module

The stacking cable is a high-speed cable used for stacking and connecting devices to transmit electrical signals. Switch stacking is to combine multiple switch devices that support stacking features, and then use dedicated cables and modules to plug in ports with stacking functions, connect these switches together, and combine them logically into a switching device. When connecting stack cables, pay attention to the following points: The maximum length of an optical fiber or optical cable is 10 m. Therefore, when the distance between two switches is longer than 10 m, use network cables to set up a stack.

Selecting Stacking Cables

Depending on the switch model and the number and type of stacking ports, the bidirectional stacking link provides 40 Gbps, 80 Gbps, or 160 Gbps full-duplex bandwidth. Stacking connections using the
