    Hi,

    I am fairly new to Aruba switching and need to stack a new 6200 switch to an existing 6200 switch.

    My switch model is JL728a.

    Looking at the datasheet HPE Aruba Networking CX6200 Switch Series Datasheet (arubanetworks.com) it looks like I need a HPE Aruba Networking 10G SFP+ to SFP+ 1m Direct Attach Copper Cable (J9281D).

    Can you please confirm I can use J9281D as my DAC cable so I can stack my switches?

    Thank you,

    Yes you can use the front SFP+ ports for uplinks/VSF stacking. 

    You then can use J9281D (1m DAC) or J9283D (3m DAC) cables for VSF stacking
