After configuring the master and member switches, you are ready to cable
the 5Gbps ports of the stack trunk and power on the stack for the first time.
(If you want to monitor the power-on sequence, connect a terminal or

switch.)
To power on the stack for the first time, perform the following procedure:
1. Verify that the master and member switches are powered off.
2. Cable the 5Gbps ports of the stack trunk on the switches. Refer to
"Cabling Twisted Pair Ports" on page 154.
3. Power on all the switches at the same time or within thirty seconds of
each other. Refer to "Powering on a Stack" on page 142.
Refer to "Power Specifications" on page 170 for the power
specifications of the switches.
