Stacking SG500-28 and SG500-52

[thomas.li1]

I plan to stack a SG500-28 and  a SG500-52 with native stacking. Is this supported? I saw a CiscoYoutube video showing a specific cable for stacking similar series of switch. The cable mentioned in the video was SPF-H10GB-CU1M. Is this cable necessary or will a ordinary Cat6 cable work as well?

No,  You can't use a Cat 6 cable see enclosed link chapter 5 about stacking

Thanks. So do I need a actual separate SFP module or I just need to purchase one of these SFPH10GB-CU1M cables? Or do I need 2 cables for it to work properly?

Just purchase the SFP-H10GB-CU1M as it is an SFP plus twinax cable., you can use just one, but for redundancy 2 would be better..the the previous link about setting up a LAG
