BayStack 420 Switch stack operation

You can connect up to eight BayStack 420 switches to provide uninterrupted connectivity for up to 192 ports. The entire stack is manageable as a single unit.

Unit Select switch

The Unit Select push-button switch (in = Base) determines the base unit for the stack configuration (see “Base unit” on page 50). The Unit Select switch status is displayed on the BayStack 420 Switch LED display panel. When the Unit Select switch is in the Base (in) position, all other Unit Select switches in the stack configuration must be set to Off (out).
