Chapter 4 Installation and Setup

Connecting Stacked Switches

Note: The two ends of the Octaplane cable terminate with different connectors. Each connector can only be connected to its matching port.

The following cables are used to connect stacked switches:

•Short Octaplane cable (X330SC) – ivory-colored, used to connect adjacent switches (Catalog No. CB0223) or switches separated by a BUPS unit.

•Long Octaplane cable (X330LC) – ivory-colored, used to connect switches from two different physical stacks, or switches separated by a BUPS unit (Catalog No. CB0225).

•Redundant cable (X330RC) – black, used to connect the top and bottom switches of a stack (Catalog No. CB0222).

To connect stacked switches:

1Plug the light grey connector of the Short Octaplane cable into the port marked “to upper unit” of the bottom Cajun P330 switch.

2Plug dark grey connector of same Short Octaplane cable to the port marked “to lower unit” in the unit above. The connections are illustrated in Figure 4.3.

3Repeat Steps 1 and 2 until you reach the top switch in the stack.

Note: If you have split the stack, use the Long Cable instead of the Short Cable where required.

4If you wish to implement stack redundancy, use the Redundant Cable to connect the the port marked “ to lower unit” on the bottom switch to the port marked “to upper unit” on top switch of the stack.

Caution: Do not cross connect two Cajun P333T switches with two Octaplane (light-colored) cables. If you wish to cross-connect for redundancy, use one light- colored Octaplane cable and one black redundancy cable. Figure 4.2 shows an incorrect connection.

Note: You can build a stack of up to 10 Cajun P330 switches. If you do not wish to stack all the switches in a single rack, use long Octaplane cables to connect two physical stacks as shown in Figure 4.3.
