Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary function of the Cisco STACK-T1-1M= cable? +
The STACK-T1-1M= is a dedicated Type 1 stacking cable designed to interconnect Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series switches. It allows you to create a high-speed physical stack, enabling multiple switches to operate as a single unified unit with shared management, configuration, and backplane bandwidth for improved network resiliency.
How long is the STACK-T1-1M= stacking cable? +
This specific model, indicated by the 1M in its part number, features a length of 1 meter. This length is ideal for connecting switches housed within the same server rack or adjacent racks, providing sufficient slack for cable management while maintaining signal integrity across the stack.
Is the STACK-T1-1M= compatible with all Cisco Catalyst 3850 switch models? +
Yes, this cable is purpose-built for the Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series architecture. It is designed to work seamlessly with the StackWise-480 technology integrated into these switches, ensuring full compatibility with the series' high-performance backplane stacking capabilities.
Does using the STACK-T1-1M= cable require additional software licensing? +
The cable itself is a physical interconnect component and does not require a specific software license to function. However, ensure that your Catalyst 3850 switches are running a consistent Cisco IOS XE software version to prevent potential synchronization issues within your stack configuration.
Can I use the STACK-T1-1M= to connect a 3850 switch to a different series? +
No, the STACK-T1-1M= is engineered specifically for the Catalyst 3850 Series. It utilizes the proprietary Type 1 connector interface unique to these switches. Attempting to force connections to non-compatible hardware will not establish a stack and may risk damaging the physical ports on your equipment.
What is the maximum stacking bandwidth supported when using these cables? +
When connected using the appropriate stacking modules and the STACK-T1-1M= cables, the Catalyst 3850 Series supports StackWise-480 technology. This architecture provides a massive 480 Gbps of stacking bandwidth, which ensures that traffic between stacked members remains extremely low-latency and highly efficient under heavy enterprise workloads.
How should I deploy the STACK-T1-1M= for redundant stacking topologies? +
To achieve a redundant configuration, connect the cables in a ring topology between your stack members. By looping the connections through each switch back to the master unit, the stack gains high availability; if one cable fails, the stack retains connectivity through the alternate path, preventing downtime.
Does the STACK-T1-1M= require any specific configuration after physical installation? +
Once the physical cables are securely seated in the stacking ports, the Catalyst 3850 switches will typically detect the stack members automatically. You must ensure all switches are powered down or perform a graceful reload after cabling to allow the stack master to assign member roles and synchronize configurations correctly.
How can I obtain a bulk quote for multiple STACK-T1-1M= units? +
If you are planning an enterprise-wide hardware refresh or require a large volume of STACK-T1-1M= cables, our sales team is ready to assist. Please contact us directly with your required quantities to receive a competitive volume-based quote tailored to your specific project needs and budgetary requirements.
