4.6.1 Functions and Applications
Functions
The ETPC provides two 12 Gbit/s electrical interfaces to implement data access and line-speed
switching.
Stacking is a technology that connects multiple switches by using the ETPC to function as a
logical device. The S5300 supports a maximum of nine switches in a stack system.
Applications
The ETPC can be inserted into the S5324TP-SI, S5348TP-SI, S5328C-EI, S5352C-EI, S5328C-
EI-24S, S5328C-SI, S5352C-SI, S5324TP-PWR-SI, S5348TP-PWR-SI, S5328C-PWR-SI,
S5352C-PWR-SI, S5328C-PWR-EI, or S5352C-PWR-EI for stacking.
The following requirements must be met to implement stacking:
l All the member switches belong to the same series. The EI series and SI series cannot form
l All the member switches are connected by using stack cables and stack modules.
l The stack rear card cannot be used together with the E4GF/E4GFA or E4XY front card.
