  • Patent number: 11719899
    Abstract: A high-density networking system includes first networking device(s) coupled to a second networking device. The second networking device has a port row including first ports and a first subset of third ports, and second ports and a second subset of third ports that are each moveable relative to the first ports and the first subset of third ports, with the third ports coupled to the first networking device(s). The second networking device includes a switch device coupling the third ports to its processing system. The switch device in second networking device routes data from the processing system through a network via the first subset of third ports/first networking device(s), determines that data received from the processing system cannot reach the network via the first subset of third ports and, in response, routes data received from the processing system through the network via the second subset of third ports/first networking device(s).
