Gigabit Ethernet Uplink Modules
Stacking Module
Stacking modules are used to connect OmniSwitch 6624, 6600-U24, and 6648 switches in a stack. The
stack acts as a virtual chassis, with switches serving as primary and secondary management modules and
Network Interface (NI) modules. For detailed information, refer to
6600 Series Stacks."

HSSDC Stacking Connectors
The stacking module provides two dedicated High Speed Serial Data
Connectors (HSSDCs). These connectors are used to connect OS6624/
OS6600-U24/OS6648 switches in a stack. For detailed information on
stacks, refer to
Chapter 3, "Managing OmniSwitch 6600 Series Stacks."

LINK/ACT LEDs
Each stacking connector has a built-in corresponding LED. This LED
indicates the link and activity status for each connector. The LED dis-
plays green when a valid cable connection exists. Flashes green as data is
being transmitted to, or received from, the adjacent switch in the stack.
