Nexus Stacking

Hi guys

In catalyst switches we can stack wise them physically how we stack nexus switches i don't see any port on back panel of the switches ?

You use ordinary ports.

Nexus don't stack, but you can have a pair provide vPC.

Nexus is more flexible in this case.

NSK can connect with other NSK to form vpc which is more similar to stackwise virtual you can see in c9k.

NSK can connect to N2K (nexus 2000 series) which called extender' which make NSK have more ports.
