Connecting to the StackWise Ports

Connecting to the StackWise Ports

Before connecting the StackWise cables, review the “Planning a Switch Data Stack” section on page 2-4. Always use a Cisco-approved StackWise cable to connect the switches.

Step 1 Remove the dust covers from the StackWise cables and StackWise ports, and store them for future use.

Step 2 Connect the cable to the StackWise port on the switch rear panel. Align the connector and connect the StackWise cable to the StackWise port on the switch rear panel and finger-tighten the screws (clockwise direction). Make sure the Cisco logo is on the top side of the connector as shown in Figure 2-15.

Step 3 Connect the other end of the cable to the port on the other switch and finger-tighten the screws. Avoid overtightening the screws.
