Can UCS FEX's be daisy chained?

Was setting up a half dozen UCS chassis and noticed some of the FEX's have 8 ports instead of 4. Got me wondering, can you daisy chain a series of chassis together, with only one chassis actually connecting directly to the FI?

I tried it with some 10GB SFPs I had laying around and got link light but the FI didn't recognize the daisy chained chassis. Was curious if it's possible and maybe I'm using the wrong cables. Thanks!

Does the chassis support Interconnects at full speed? I know that 3750 can with stacking, if not then you will ultimately just be cutting the bandwith in half as with all daisy-chains. Best bet is to check the manual since you know what you are looking for already.
