Extreme Networks 17001 manual Connecting a SummitStack 64G Stacking Cable

Connecting a SummitStack 64G Stacking Cable

SummitStack 64G cables are used to connect the 64-Gbps stacking ports on the VIM2-SummitStack128 module in Summit X480 series switches.

Because of the weight of the SummitStack 64G cable, Extreme Networks strongly recommends the use of cable management hardware to support the cables and provide strain relief at the connectors. Figure 86 and Figure 87 show representative types of cable management hardware. Your particular rack configuration may require other cable management solutions.
