Stack Trunks of 10Gbps Ports
You can build stack trunks with 10Gbps SFP+ transceiver ports on the
switches. The guidelines are described here:
 Stacks can have up to eight switches.
 For stacking ports, you can use:
– x530L-28GPX and x530L-28GTX ports 25 to 28
– x530L-52GPX and x530L-52GTX ports 49 to 52
– x530L-10GHXm ports 9 and 10
– x530L-18GHXm ports 17 and 18
 SFP+ transceivers and direct attach cables used for a stack trunk
must be from Allied Telesis. Switches will not form a stack with
transceivers from other network equipment providers. For a list of
supported transceivers, refer to the product data sheet on the
Allied Telesis web site.
Note
Transceiver must be purchased separately.
 The 10Gbps stacking ports and transceiver ports can be used as
regular networking ports by disabling the stacking feature.
 A stack trunk can be either linear or ring. Ring is recommended
because it adds redundancy. The stack can continue to function
even if a trunk link fails.
