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 128 and Figure 129 show representative types of cable management hardware. Your particular
rack configuration may require other cable management solutions.
