You can connect two units with two or more stacking cables in case of a stacking port or cable failure. Removal of only one of
the cables does not trigger a reset.
Important Points to Remember
You can stack up to six systems.
You cannot stack one system with other system types.
You cannot enable stacking and virtual link trunking (VLT) simultaneously on the device. To convert a stacked unit to VLT,
see Reconfiguring Stacked Switches as VLT.
When using the 40G ports, you can configure a single port as a stack port; each 40G port is a stack-group.
All stack units must have the same version of Dell EMC Networking OS.
