Native Stacking for X670-G2 Switches
For X670-G2 native stacking, use the 4 x 40 Gb interfaces that are fixed on the front of the switch. Use
any Extreme Networks certified 40G QSFP+ cable or optical transceiver to make the connections
among the switches to be stacked.
For a complete listing of compatible cables and optical transceivers, see the
Software Compatibility and Recommendation
X670-G2-48x-4q switches support native stacking using V160 and V320.
