Ring Topologies
Up to 10 switches may also be connected in closed ring topologies. Ring topologies afford some
protection from a single failure because communication between the switches continues, in a
direction away from the failure.
A typical ring topology is illustrated in Figure 27 (page 50).

Cable connection examples for stacked rings are illustrated in Figure 28 (page 51).
