Which stack module and cable to order for J9145a procurve 2910 switch

[Dennis_HP-ATP]

Hello community friends,

I recently bought 2 HP ProCurve 2910a-24G Gigabit Ethernet Switches (J9145a) and I would like to stack them to create a backplane stack.

Does anyone know, which stacking module and stacking cable to buy, in order to form a backplane stack?

I already tried the internet, amazon as well as the HPE Online configurator.

Many thanks.

Rgds,

Dennis

Have you tried to look for J9165A Interconnect Kit (2 Modules plus one short interconnect cable which look like a CX4 as used on some 3Com for IRF deployment)?

The 0.5 meter long interconnect cable part of the kit could be found with cod e 8121-0879 and it is clearly a CX4...

Hi Parnassus,

Thanks for your reply. I will have a look.

Hi Parnassus,

It's working!

I found the correct stacking module. Many thanks! I can now build a stack (let the fun begin) :-)

Rgds,
