Connecting a StackWise-320 Cable
Procedure
Step 1
Remove the dust covers from the StackWise cables and store them for future use.
A StackWise adapter must be installed in the StackWise port to enable stacking. In a default setup, the
StackWise adapter blanks are installed in the StackWise ports. If StackWise is ordered with the switch,
StackWise adapters are already installed in the StackWise ports, and you can proceed to step 4.
