3650 Series Switch Stack C3650-STACK-KIT Module Spare Cable Network Switch

The Cisco C3650-STACK-KIT= is a stack module spare designed for the Cisco Catalyst 3650 series switches. It allows for easy stacking of multiple switches, providing a unified management interface and increased scalability. With its compact design and high-performance capabilities, this stack module is a reliable solution for enhancing network performance and simplifying network management.

Cisco StackWise-160 Technology

The Cisco Catalyst C3650-STACK-KIT=is based on the Cisco StackWise-160 technology. Cisco StackWise-160 technology is built on the highly successful industry-leading StackWise technology, which is a premium stacking architecture. StackWise-160 has a stack bandwidth of 160 Gbps. StackWise‑160 uses Cisco IOS Software SSO for providing resiliency within the stack. The stack behaves as a single switching unit that is managed by an “active” switch elected by the member switches. The active switch automatically elects a standby switch within the stack. The active switch creates and updates all the switching/routing/wireless information and constantly synchronizes that information with the standby switch. If the active switch fails, the standby switch assumes the role of the active switch and continues to the keep the stack operational. Access points continue to remain connected during an active-to-standby switchover. A working stack can accept new members or delete old ones without service interruption. StackWise-160 creates a highly resilient single unified system of up to nine switches, providing simplified management using a single IP address, single Telnet session, single CLI, auto-version checking, auto-upgrading, auto-configuration, and more.
