The Cisco FlexStack Module, with part number WS-C2960S-STACK, is a stacking module designed specifically for Catalyst 2960-S Series switches. It allows multiple switches to be combined into a single logical unit, creating a stackable architecture that can operate as a unified device. This module enables up to four switches in the Catalyst 2960-S Series to be stacked, supporting up to 40 Gbps of bidirectional stacking bandwidth, which helps improve overall network performance.
The FlexStack module offers plug-and-play functionality, making it easy to implement without downtime. Its hot-swappable capability means that you can remove or insert it without having to power down the switch, which provides operational flexibility and reduced network disruptions. As a modular add-on, this component enhances the scalability of your network by enabling seamless growth and adjustment to increased switching demands as more switches and devices are added.
In terms of management, the module ensures that stacked switches function as a single unit, which reduces the complexity of network management while maintaining resiliency through redundant stacking connections. The stacking functionality provided by the WS-C2960S-STACK also supports features such as automatic push configurations and link aggregation across multiple switches, ensuring high availability and optimised performance for business-critical environments.
