x590 how stacking and use of other ports

I need to understand how can stack x590 model.

From datasheet I don't understand nothing.

There are n°1 port (QSFP) and n°2 port QSFP28, stacking is built with QSFP28 ports and it need n°2 ports per switch, I can use QSFP passive cable or QSFP28 passive cable if I want v160 or v400 stacking, can't it?

from Extreme documentation stacking ports are 29-33, why?

1-24 are ethernet ports, 25 to 28 QSFP ports, 29-32 should QSFP28 port (1) and 33-36 QSFP28 port (2).

Can I use only one stack cable per switch? Is it possible to have second QSFP28 port as uplink to connect QSFP28 host?

Someone can send me more documentation detailed about these products?
