VCS Stacking Module
A Virtual Chassis Stack (VCS) is a group of x600 Layer 3 Gigabit Ethernet
Series switches with a VCS Stacking module installed in each switch. This
module with its two full-duplex, 12 Gbps stacking ports, unifies the
individual switches into a single, logical unit so that the network operations
of the devices encompass all of the Gigabit Ethernet ports. This can
simplify network management and augment network bandwidth. Figure 14
shows the VCS Stacking Module (AT-StackXG).
