switch to switch: Is it important to use cross over cables?

[Sikander_Shah]

i have many switches to interconnect,does it required crossover cables?

Sikander,

it not necessary. you can you straight cable.
Extreme switch support auto-polarity and it on by default which help to automatically detect the other end link through straight cable.

By default auto polarity is ON, you could use straight through cables itself for connecting the switches.

You might need to use cross over cables only when auto polarity is turned off.
