Figure 40: Combining Stacking Port Types: Example
Note
The figure is intended to show cable connections between switches. Details of the switches
themselves, such as the location of the stacking ports and fan modules, might dier from
those of the switches that actually would be used.
The following cables are used to make the stacking connections:
QSFP+ cable connecting the two switches at the top (slot 1 and slot 2)
SFP+ cable connecting the switch in slot 2 with the switch in slot 3
SFP+ cable connecting the switch in slot 3 with the switch in slot 4
SFP+ cable connecting the switch in slot 4 with the switch in slot 5
SFP+ cable connecting the switch in slot 5 with the switch in slot 1
Table 18 lists the recommended order for connecting the stacking ports in this example.

Using SummitStack-V160 Stacking
A stacking rate of 160 Gbps can be achieved using certain configurations of Extreme Networks
switches. For example, an X460-G2 switch can be connected to an X670-G2-48x-4q switch through
40-Gbps stacking connections that provide 160 Gbps full-duplex bandwidth. This connection is
performed using the VIM-2q module in the X460-G2 switch and the QSFP+ ports on the X670-
G2-48x-4q switch.
