x510 Series Installation Guide for Virtual Chassis Stacking

Note
SFP+ slots 27 and 28 on the AT-x510-28GTX Switch and slots 51
and 52 on the AT-x510-52GTX Switch are initially configured as
stacking slots for the VCStack feature. If you intend to use the switch
as a stand-alone unit, you must disable the VCStack feature before
using the slots with standard SFP or SFP+ transceivers. The
configuration instructions are provided in the x510 Series Installation
Guide for Stand-alone Switches.
Stacking Slots Two SFP+ slots can be used with special stacking transceivers to create a
VCStack of up to four switches that operate as a virtual switch. Here are
the basic features of the stacking slots on the x510 Series switches:
Two stacking ports per switch
40Gbps stacking bandwidth
LEDs Here are the port LEDs:
Duplex mode and link/activity LEDs for the twisted pair ports
Link/activity LEDs for the SFP+ slots
Stack ID number LED
eco-friendly button turns off the LEDs to conserve electricity
