Stacking 9200 & 9300 Series Switches

Hi

 

This may have been asked / answered before but I was wondering if anyone knows if it'd be possible to stack a 9200 & 9300 switch together? 

I've read through the white papers which only mention the 9300 & 9300L not working in a mixed stack and was wondering if anyone might know?

Ah shame. Thanks Balaji!

Not really, Cat 9200 is different feature set  and different Function compare to higher model of Cat 9300.

jazzipup,

To add to Balaji's answer ...

This is what can be stacked together for the 9200 and 9300 families:

  • 9300 / 9300X stacks with 9300 / 9300X
  • 9300L stacks with 9300L
  • 9200 stacks with 9200
  • 9200L stacks with 9200L

Cheers,

Thanks Scott

That's really useful to know. Might have to go down the 9300 & 9300X route

Cheers

yes you can mix USM with UPOE Cat 9300 for better outcome

 

bare in mind UXM model does not support if you have legacy 10MB ports - so you need to have UPOE in stack to accomidate so.

Hi Scott, so it's not possible to connect in stack 9200 with 9200L

or 9300 with 9300L ?

Thank for your answer

Normal one with L not possible to stack.

 

 

For 9300 fixed uplink models, stack kit is mandatory for StackWise-320 and has to be ordered separately. Each stack kit consists of two stack adapters and one data stack cable.

 

Good guide for reference :
