Open multiple info buffers in Emacs

Is it possible to open more than one info buffer in Emacs? I used C-h i to open info and started reading the section I was interested in. While reading, I wanted to refer to another info section -- using C-h i a second time does not open a second info buffer. How can this be done?

Help for the info command says (get help with F1 f info):

A numeric prefix argument selects an Info buffer with the prefix
number appended to the Info buffer name.

So, open a first info window as usual, then open another info window by typing (for example):

M-2 M-x info

Now you have 2 independent info windows, the second one called *info*<2>.

Split the window using C-X-2, to split horizontally or C-X-3 to split vertically. that way you can have two panes showing the same buffer. You can get back to a single pane using C-X-1.
