Trying to use the dedicated rear 21Gbps stacking ports on X450-G2 but no bueno

I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong here, I currently have a stack of 5 switches (All X450-G2 using the front 10Gb ports)

Slot-1 ex-460-chi.1 # show stacking

Stack Topology is a Daisy-Chain

I'm plugging in the rear dedicated 21Gbs ports but not getting any link light, do I need to disable the stack first before? Hopefully not as I'd love to do this the easy way 
