    2 eithernet switches

    Im currently running 3 onix units a solex and im adding an ultrex link..so far my comunication between the 5 units has been good.. im debating weather to run one onix and 360 seperate or adding a second eithernet switch..
    Anyone running 2 switches? Do you have any problems with everything talking?

    I have two switches in my Z8.. Ultrex, 360, Two 800 series, and two Helix 10's. No issues at all. I did have an issue at first with both 800 series but it was MY software update issue.

    You can daisy chain up to four Ethernet Switches to have 16 connections if you want.

    I run two 5 port switches, I have them mounted side by side and connected to each other with a two foot ethernet cable.
