It depends.

Say, you have a 8 ohm cabinet now and you build two cabinets 4 ohms each. Then your amp needs to be able to run at 4 ohm load, but the two new cabinets need to be connected in series (4 ohms + 4 ohms = 8 ohms). These two loads can now be connected to your "output channels" which most likely are just cabinet connectors wired in parallel.

For the series connection, you need to build a "series box".

If, on the contrary, you need for some reason to connect more cabinets in parallel, you need a "parallel box".

Does your amp really have 2 channels or just 2 output jacks?
