Stacking together switches of the same size makes it easier to cable the switches.
Cisco 3750x stack cable length.
Depending on the configuration of your switch stack you might need different sized cables.
The catalyst 3750 x switches have a stackpower connector for use with cisco stackpower cables to configure a switch power stack that includes up to four switches.
If you do not specify the length of the stackwise cable the 0 5 meter cable is supplied.
Is 3m the maximum length available.
I was wondering if there was a way to see if the port was administrativly down.
I have read that 1m and 3m cables are available in addition to the default 0 5m stackwise cable.
Depending on the configurations that you have you might need different sized cables.
Figure b 2 10 gigabit ethernet cx1 copper connector example.
The cable in figure 2 is used between a catalyst 3750 x or 3560 x switch and the xps 2200.
Switch 1 stack power cable 2 inserted can i unplug and plug the stackwise cable while device is running power on to test.

Figure 2 9 xps 2200 cable for use with xps 2200.
Sfp and sfp mod ules.
If you don t specify the length of the stackwise cable the 0 5 meter cable is supplied.
The xps 2200 extended power supply for the cisco catalyst 3750 x will not be available until december 2010.
Stacking switches with the same power supply modules together makes it easier to cable the switches.
Figure b 3 figure b 4 and figure b 5 show the sfp module connectors.
At this pint i know its one of the switch stack ports that are the issue.
By adding an xps 2200 expandable power system you can configure a power stack that comprises up to nine switches.
You can configure a ring power stack or use the xps 2200 to configure a star topology.
In these examples the switches are stacked in a vertical rack or on a table.
The 10 gigabit ethernet optical modules use the connectors shown in figure b 3 and figure b 4.

Length of cable.
Figure 2 10 shows a ring configuration using both of the supplied 0 3 meter stackpower cables and one 1 5 meter cable.
The catalyst 3560 x switch supports the sfp mod ule patch ca ble a 0 5 meter copper passive cable with sfp module connectors at each end.
Stack cable length 3750 question think of the small but so irritating fact that the stack cables need to make a loop to function properly.
If you only use it to make a long chain with 3meter cables then you set yourself up for realy poor performance under load and trouble with split stacks and such things.
