One Meter Copper Stack Links

CAB-STK-E-1M is a Stack Cable and Cisco FlexStack 1m stacking cable with 1 m reach for Catalyst 2960-XR and 2960-X FlexStack-Plus stacks at 80 Gbps. The 1 m reach separates it from the 0.5 m adjacent-switch cable while keeping the same copper FlexStack ports. The Cisco Catalyst 2960-X stack cable also serves 2960-S/SF FlexStack links and FlexStack-Extended hybrid copper links. Catalyst 2960-XR stacks with 2960-XR, Catalyst 2960-X stacks with 2960-X, and Catalyst 2960-X mixes with 2960-S/SF at the lower mixed-stack limit. Rear FlexStack modules provide the ports. The stack acts as one switching unit with one data plane, one configuration and one management IP address.

CAB-STK-E-1M price is $115.50, a 56.6% saving from the Cisco list price of $266.00. CAB-STK-E-1M is in stock and available for free next-day delivery. (terms applied)

Technical Details

80 Gbps of stack bandwidth applies to Catalyst 2960-XR IP Lite or Catalyst 2960-X LAN Base FlexStack-Plus stacks with 8 members. 40 Gbps applies to Catalyst 2960-X with 2960-S/SF mixed stacks at 4 members and to FlexStack-Extended hybrid copper stacks at 8 members. 20 Gbps of FlexStack throughput applies to Catalyst 2960-S LAN Base stacks with 4 members. CAB-STK-E-1M connects one stack port on each neighboring switch, and a full ring of n switches needs n cables. Half cabling gives half bandwidth and removes redundant connections. FlexStack modules are hot-swappable, but adding or removing a switch from an existing stack needs that switch powered off.

Ordering

New sealed and certified refurbished conditions cover CAB-STK-E-1M. Certified refurbished testing has connectors, pins, latches and housing inspected, connected between two compatible switches, and stack link up at the rated bandwidth. Count one 1 m cable per stack member for a full ring, then confirm rear access and the FlexStack module on each stack-capable switch. Cisco service ends 31 October 2027. Warranty is new — up to 3-year extended and certified refurbished — up to 1 year; returns are 30 days on every condition · terms apply. UK · EU · US · MEA regional stock, RMA with advance replacement, PO accepted and Net-30 for government apply.

Buying Notes

Buying NotesKey Specs

Full ring cable count

A full ring needs one 1 m cable per stack member; a chain uses one fewer cable and runs at half bandwidth without redundant connections.

Rear path length

Use the 1 m cable when the rear-panel path exceeds 0.5 m; the same cable set also has CAB-STK-E-0.5M and CAB-STK-E-3M.

Mixed stack limit

A Catalyst 2960-X with 2960-S/SF mixed stack stays at 4 members and 40 Gbps; Catalyst 2960-XR stacks only with Catalyst 2960-XR.

Install sequence

FlexStack modules are hot-swappable, but adding or removing a switch from an existing stack needs that switch powered off before the stack changes.

Best For

Failed Link Replacement

An operations team has one FlexStack link down and green stack-port LEDs missing on the rear module. A 1 m replacement matches the same copper FlexStack cable length, keeps the 80 Gbps FlexStack-Plus design intact, and requires one cable for each failed link before the PO.

Full Ring Completion

A network team is closing a 5-member Catalyst 2960-X ring after a chain build. Full bandwidth needs redundant connections, and incomplete cabling gives half bandwidth with no redundant connection. Count 5 cables for 5 switches and measure each rear-panel path before the PO.

Mixed Stack Limit

A refresh team is preserving a 2960-S/SF stack while adding Catalyst 2960-X LAN Base members. The mixed stack limit is 4 members at 40 Gbps, and Catalyst 2960-XR is not part of that mix. Count only the mixed members and cable positions before the PO.

Not Suitable If

Three meter rack runs

A 1 m FlexStack cable does not cover the 3 m rear-panel cable position. Use CAB-STK-E-3M for 3 m paths in the same FlexStack cable set.

LAN Lite 2960-X models

Catalyst 2960X-48TS-LL and 2960X-24TS-LL have no FlexStack module slot. This cable has no rear stack port to connect on those models.

Fiber distance stacking

A copper FlexStack cable does not provide the 300m LR or 7km EX SFP+ path. Use C2960X-FIBER-STK with the required SFP+ optics.

Questions & Answers

What is CAB-STK-E-1M?

CAB-STK-E-1M is the Cisco FlexStack 1m stacking cable, a 1 m copper data stack cable for Catalyst 2960-XR, 2960-X and 2960-S FlexStack ports. The CAB-STK-E cable set has 0.5 m, 1 m and 3 m lengths and carries data stacking only.

What switches does CAB-STK-E-1M fit?

CAB-STK-E-1M fits stack-capable Catalyst 2960-XR, Catalyst 2960-X, Catalyst 2960-S and Catalyst 2960-SF switches with the matching FlexStack module. Catalyst 2960X-48TS-LL and 2960X-24TS-LL have no FlexStack module slot. Catalyst 2960-XR stacks with 2960-XR, not with 2960-X or 2960-S.

What stack cable does a Catalyst 2960-X use?

A Catalyst 2960-X uses CAB-STK-E-1M for a 1 m FlexStack copper link. The other copper cable lengths are CAB-STK-E-0.5M and CAB-STK-E-3M. Rear stack ports come from C2960X-STACK, C2960X-FIBER-STK or C2960X-HYBRID-STK, matched to FlexStack-Plus or FlexStack-Extended.

What bandwidth does CAB-STK-E-1M provide?

CAB-STK-E-1M provides 80 Gbps in Catalyst 2960-XR IP Lite or Catalyst 2960-X LAN Base FlexStack-Plus stacks, 40 Gbps in FlexStack-Extended hybrid copper stacks, and 20 Gbps in Catalyst 2960-S FlexStack stacks. Mixed Catalyst 2960-X with 2960-S/SF stacks run at 40 Gbps with 4 members.

How many CAB-STK-E-1M cables does a full ring need?

A full ring needs one CAB-STK-E-1M cable per stack member, so 4 switches need 4 cables and 8 switches need 8 cables. A chain uses one fewer cable but gives half bandwidth and removes redundant connections. Measure the rear-panel path because this cable is 1 m long.

How many switches can use CAB-STK-E-1M in one stack?

CAB-STK-E-1M serves 8-member Catalyst 2960-XR or Catalyst 2960-X FlexStack-Plus stacks and 8-member FlexStack-Extended stacks. Catalyst 2960-S FlexStack is 4 members. A mixed Catalyst 2960-X with 2960-S/SF stack is 4 members at 40 Gbps. Full cabling gives redundant connections; incomplete cabling gives half bandwidth.

How do you install CAB-STK-E-1M?

CAB-STK-E-1M plugs into the rear FlexStack stack ports after the dust covers are removed. The connector must snap in fully. For FlexStack-Plus, STACK 1 uses the tab above the connector and STACK 2 uses the tab below the connector. Power off a switch before adding it to or removing it from an existing stack.

Can CAB-STK-E-1M mix Catalyst 2960-X and 2960-S switches?

Yes, CAB-STK-E-1M serves a mixed Catalyst 2960-X LAN Base with Catalyst 2960-S/SF LAN Base stack at 40 Gbps and 4 members. Catalyst 2960-XR is outside that mix and stacks with Catalyst 2960-XR. Non-2960 switches are not supported on these FlexStack links.

Is CAB-STK-E-1M= the same cable as CAB-STK-E-1M?

CAB-STK-E-1M= is the spare ordering form for CAB-STK-E-1M in the FlexStack cable set. The base PID is the installed cable identity on this page. The equals sign is separate from certified refurbished condition, and it does not change the 1 m length.

What is the difference between CAB-STK-E-1M and CAB-STK-E-3M?

CAB-STK-E-1M is the 1 m FlexStack cable, while CAB-STK-E-3M is the 3 m length in the same FlexStack cable set. The stack technology and family fit stay the same. Choose 1 m for shorter rear-panel paths and 3 m for longer rack spans.

What is the difference between CAB-STK-E-1M and C2960X-STACK?

CAB-STK-E-1M is a 1 m data stack cable, while C2960X-STACK is the FlexStack-Plus hot-swappable stacking module that supplies the rear stack ports. A switch needs the module before the cable has a stack port to connect. Order cables by link length, not by module count.

Is CAB-STK-E-1M end of sale?

Cisco stopped selling CAB-STK-E-1M on 31 October 2022. Cisco service ends on 31 October 2027 for the PID. The cable serves Catalyst 2960-XR, Catalyst 2960-X, Catalyst 2960-S and Catalyst 2960-SF FlexStack families. No replacement PID is named for this cable. Use the installed family rules for spares.

What warranty does ORM offer for CAB-STK-E-1M?

ORM offers up to 3-year extended warranty for new sealed CAB-STK-E-1M and up to 1 year for certified refurbished CAB-STK-E-1M. The Catalyst 2960-X and 2960-XR family term is Enhanced Limited Lifetime Hardware Warranty, and Cisco service for the PID ends on 31 October 2027. Returns are 30 days on every condition · terms apply.
