Stack Topology
Types of Stack Topology
The units in a stack can be connected in one of the following types of topologies:
• Chain Topology—Each unit is connected to the neighboring unit, but there is no cable
connection between the first and last unit. See “Stack Architecture (Chain Topology)”
shows a chain topology.
• Ring Topology—Each unit is connected to the neighboring unit. The last unit is
connected to the first unit. The following shows a ring topology of an eight-unit stack:
