Removing/Replacing Units from the Stack

This section describes how to remove and/or replace units in an operating stack.

Because the Redundant Cascade Stacking feature allows signals to loopback at a single point of failure, adjacent contiguous cabled units can be removed and replaced as a single unit from the stack.

For more information about the Redundant Cascade Stacking feature see “ Redundant Cascade Stacking Feature” on page 14.
