    Introducing the E3800 Switches The HP E3800 switches are multiport switches that can be used to build high- performance switched networks. These switches are store-and-forward devices offering low latency for high-speed networking. The E3800 switches also support a field-replaceable Redundant Power Supply and fan tray, Power over Ethernet (PoE/PoE+) technologies, and full network management capabilities.

  • Page 51: Stacking Information And Topologies

    Stacking Information and Topologies Stacking Information and Topologies The E3800 switches support the HP FlexChassis Mesh feature for stacking the switches. When E3800 Stacking Modules (J9577A) are installed in the switches, any combination of up to ten E3800 switches can be stacked together via high-speed backplane cables to form a single extended virtual switch.
  • Page 52 Installing the Switch Stacking Information and Topologies Chain Topologies Up to 10 switches may be stacked in an open-ended chain with single cables between each pair of switches. N o t e Chain topologies are not recommended because a single failure (switch, stacking module, or cable) will cause switch-to-switch communication failures between switches that are located on opposite sides of the failure.
  • Page 53 Installing the Switch Stacking Information and Topologies Figure 2-18. Typical chain topology Cable connection examples for stacked chains are illustrated in Figure 2-19. Figure 2-19. Cable connection examples for chain topologies 2-switch chain 3-switch chain 5-switch chain 2-25...
  • Page 54 Installing the Switch Stacking Information and Topologies Ring Topologies Up to 10 switches may also be connected in closed ring topologies. Ring topologies afford some protection from a single failure because communications between the switches continues, in a direction away from the failure.
  • Page 55 Installing the Switch Stacking Information and Topologies Mesh Topologies Two to five switches may be stacked using mesh topologies. In mesh topologies, every switch in the stack is connected to every other switch in the stack. Hence, with four stacking ports on the Stacking Module, the maximum number of switches that can be meshed together is limited to five.
