More Specifications
The Cisco FlexStack Hot-Swappable Stacking Module (C2960S-STACK=) is an optional module for the Cisco 2960-S series switches that allows for the stacking of multiple switches together. It provides a way to connect multiple switches together and manage them as a single unit, making it easier to configure and maintain a large network.
The module has two stacking ports, which can be used to connect two switches together using special stacking cables. The switches in the stack can then be managed using a single IP address, and the stack can be configured and managed as a single entity.
This module is hot-swappable, meaning that it can be added or removed from a switch without powering down the switch or disrupting the network. This makes it easy to add or remove switches from the stack as needed.
Performance and Reliability
The Model Cisco Optional FlexStack Hot-Swappable Stacking Module is designed to provide high performance and reliability when used with Cisco Catalyst 2960-S series switches. It has a stacking bus that operates at a speed of 80 Gbps, which allows for fast communication and resource sharing between the stacked switches. It also supports up to 8 switches in a stack, allowing for a large network to be managed as a single entity.
In terms of reliability, this module includes features such as hitless stacking, which allows switches to be added or removed from the stack without interrupting network traffic, and redundant stacking links, which provide an additional level of redundancy in case of a failure of the primary stacking link. These features help to ensure that the network remains stable and available even in the event of equipment failures or other issues.
The Advantages of Stacking
The Cisco Optional FlexStack Hot-Swappable Stacking Module (C2960S-STACK=) is a stacking module designed for the Cisco Catalyst 2960-S switch series. It offers several advantages to users, including:
- Increased Scalability: The C2960S-STACK= allows users to stack up to eight switches, providing increased scalability and network growth without having to replace the entire switch.
- Hot-Swappable: The stacking module is hot-swappable, meaning it can be added or removed without having to shut down the entire switch. This reduces downtime and allows for easy maintenance and upgrades.
- Improved Network Resilience: With stacking, network resilience is improved as all switches in the stack can communicate with each other, allowing for automatic failover in case of a switch failure.
- Easy Management: The C2960S-STACK= provides a single management interface, making it easier to manage multiple switches as if they were one. This reduces administrative overhead and improves network management efficiency.
- Enhanced Performance: Stacking provides increased bandwidth and performance, as switches can communicate with each other directly, without having to go through a router or other network device.
