Can this 2 switch be stacked and if not, is there any changes we have to do to make it stack?

Thanks

The switch we need to add:

WS-C2960-24TC-L
IOS - "flash:/c2960-lanbasek9-mz.122-50.SE5/c2960-lanbasek9-mz.122-50.SE5.bin"


Existing stack:

Switch name - missionkansas17-swt
Model - WS-C2960X-24PD-L
IOS - "flash:/c2960x-universalk9-mz.150-2.EX3.bin"

Hi Bevedere,

WS-C2960-24TC-L does not support stacking.

WS-C2960X-24PD-L does support stacking and can be stacked with another switch of  the same family(2960X) or 2960S.

Hi Bevedere,

2960 does not even support stacking. This is why you probably dont see any document also.

I see this link and it mentions 2960s but not 2960. Since its same stackwise, I would imagine it works but one is running lanbase and one is universal so I don't know if it will work?

I don't see any support between C2960 and C2960X but C2960X works with 2960-S and 2960-F. I haven't found any confirmation that 2960x works with 2960 and if you run into it, please do let me know. Thanks
