| Piggyback switches ? | permalink #1 |
 Member | Not really a network guy, so I thought I'd asky'all. Can you piggyback network switches? Like say a Links*s etherfast 10/100. Boss wants to piggyback two 8 port switches, I told him I thought the bandwidth would really suck especially on the second switch, but he just kinda had his usual dumb look on his face and said "would it work?". I told him I would find out. Thanks | |

| Moderator  | Sure you can. If it has autosensing ports you can use a regular ethernet cable to do it, otherwise you need to use a crossover ethernet cable. Or if it has an uplink port you can connect that to one of the regular ports on the other with a straight cable. | |
