To connect 1-port, 24G stacking modules, starting with the S60 system at the bottom of the stack, follow these steps: Step Task 1 Insert one end of the first cable into Stack Port 48 (or 50). 2 Insert the other end of the cable into Stack Port 48 (or 50) of the middle S60 system. 3 Insert the second cable into Stack Port 50 (or 48) of the middle and top S60 systems. 4 Use the remaining cable to connect the top and bottom S60 systems by inserting one end of the cable into the open Stack Port 48 (or 50) of the bottom S60 system and the other end of the cable into Stack Port 50 (or 48) of the top S60 system.
