Several switches to one through one, is it possible?

Question

Computer networks

Hello.
A question.
1. There is a Switch (large) - network cables are connected from it to a bunch of smaller switches (cabinets).
Schematically, it is like this:
Switch -> 5 switches (one per cabinet)
2. It is necessary to connect a switch in one cabinet to the cable connected to one PC at the moment and from this switch 3 cables in addition to the new PCs.
Schematically, it should look like this: Switch -> 5 switches (one per cabinet) -> connect another one to one switch in a separate cabinet
3. How risky is organizing such a network? I understand that this is hacky, but it hurts a lot of trouble with laying new cables and so on.
Thank you for your attention.
PS I apologize for the "" amateurish questions.

Answer 1

Fine. The main thing is that there is enough bandwidth and that stupid switches are not connected to the ring

Answer 2

Supply 2 24 ports and that's it

Answer 3

Schematically, it should look like this: Switch -> 5 switches (one per cabinet) -> connect another one to one switch in a separate cabinet

The main problem is that as soon as one client contacts another client in such a network and downloads the entire channel (it will download the backup, or, for example, upload it to the server), then the rest of the users connected to the same switch will get a very sad connection to all nodes, incl. and to the internet. You have one switch connected to one port, on which there is also a garland of switches and users. Everything will rest against this one port and will only interfere with everyone.
The solution to this will be channel aggregation, if your switches have this, then use it, if there are no switches yet, look at devices with this function.
If you correctly compose and distribute the load, you will not notice any problems (except for those that are announced - cheap switches give very sad and elusive bugs in the network)

Answer 4

In theory, you can't. Each switch in the chain reduces reliability. It will die - and everything after it will fall off the network. The second point is the loops, as mentioned above. If you suddenly forget the patch cord in the socket, then someone will definitely stick its second free end into the next socket. Then you will look for a long time for the cause of the network failure. But in practice, almost always, that's exactly what they do. The reasons are fast and cheap.
