Daisy-Chaining Multiple KVM Switches (Optional)
Note:
If you are only installing a single SMB KVM-over-IP Switch, skip
to the “Remote Installation” section on page 28.
You can daisy-chain up to 15 additional OmniView SMB and PRO2 KVM
Switches to your OmniView SMB KVM-over-IP Switch, allowing a server
administrator to manage up to a maximum of 256 servers from one local or
remote console. Each daisy-chained KVM Switch is referred to as a “BANK” and
is assigned an address. The SMB KVM-over-IP Switch connected to the console
keyboard, mouse, and monitor can only function as the “primary” KVM switch.
BANKs 01 through 15 are referred to as “secondary” KVM switches.
Note:
The SMB KVM-over-IP Switch can only function as the primary KVM
switch. You cannot daisy-chain two SMB KVM-over-IP Switches together.
Note:
A Daisy-Chain Cable (F1D108-CBL-XX) is
required
to daisy-chain
each KVM Switch and is available through your Belkin reseller, or online at
www.belkin.com
(U.S. only).
How to Assign a BANK Address
All SMB CAT5 and PRO2 KVM Switches feature a “BANK DIP” switch. The
“BANK DIP” switch is used to assign the proper BANK address to each
KVM Switch.
• For a multiunit configuration, the “BANK DIP” switch for each secondary unit
must be set to a unique BANK address (from 01 through 15). Refer to the chart
on page 24 for “BANK DIP” switch settings.
