Chapter 2: Installation 10
NOTE: To open a virtual media session with a target device, the target device must first be connected to the KVM
switch using a KVM USB VM server module or KVM PS/2 VM server module.
To tier multiple KVM switches:
1. Connect the tiered KVM switch to each target device as described in Connecting the KVM
switch on page 6.
2. Connect the peripheral devices to the local user port on the digital KVM switch. See Verifying
Ethernet connections on page 8.
3. Attach one end of the CAT5 cable to the ACI port on the analog KVM switch.
4. Attach the other end of the CAT5 cable to one of the target device interface ports on the rear of
the digital KVM switch.
5. The switching system automatically merges the two KVM switches. All target devices
connected to the tiered KVM switch are included in the main KVM switch target device list in
the OSD interface. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for all additional tiered KVM switches you attach.
