three modules may be used for stacking the 8100 series switches. Also, any port on the front of an 8100 may be used for stacking. Orange screws on the modules above indicate that they are hotswappable modules. The PowerConnect 8100 series supports the same expansion modules as the Dell Force10 MXL - Dell Force10 S60-44T | Expansion Modules for Dell™ PowerConnect - Page 12
that they are hot-swappable modules. The CX4 Stacking Module for the 7000 series is not capable of changing roles (to Ethernet) as is true for CX4 modules for the 62xx/M62xx. These stacking modules are only used for stacking. 12 Expansion Modules for Dell™ PowerConnect™ and Dell Force10 Switches - Dell Force10 S60-44T | Expansion Modules for Dell™ PowerConnect - Page 13
