5 Planning Switch Stacks Before connecting the switches in a stack, keep in mind these stacking guidelines: Size of the switch and any optional power supply module. The 1150-W power supply module is longer than the other modules. Stacking switches with the same power supply modules together makes it easier to cable the switches. Length of cable. Depending on the configurations that you have, you might need different sized cables. If you do not specify the length of the StackWise cable,

Stack Cabling Configurations These illustrations show the recommended switch stack configurations with redundant StackWise cabling connections for optimized stack bandwidth. For more configuration examples, see the hardware installation guide on Cisco.com. Vertical Stacking In this example, the stack uses the 0.5-meter StackWise cable to make redundant connections. In this example, the stacks use both the 0.5- and the 3-meter StackWise cables to make redundant connections. 12 158112 158113

Side-By-Side Stacking In this example, eight switches are stacked side-by-side with redundant connections by using 0.5- and 3-meter StackWise cables. In this example, nine switches are stacked side-by-side with redundant connections by using 0.5- and 3-meter StackWise cables. Power On Sequence for Switch Stacks Consider these guidelines before you power on the switches in a stack: The sequence in which the switches are first powered on might affect the switch that becomes the stack master
