console switch is not supported as the primary unit in a cascaded configuration.
The Remote Console Switch must be the primary unit.
Cascading with Legacy Switches
To add a legacy switch (optional):
1 Mount the switch into your rack. Locate a CAT 5 cable to connect your
Remote Console Switch unit to the legacy switch (Figure 2-13).
2 Attach one end of the CAT 5 cabling to the ARI port on the Console
Switch.
3 Connect the other end of the CAT 5 cable to a Dell SIP or Avocent IQ
module.
4 Connect the SIP or IQ module to your legacy switch according to the
switch manufacturer's recommendations.
5 Repeat steps 1-4 for all the legacy switches you wish to attach to your
Remote Console Switch system.
NOTE: The Remote Console Switch supports only 1 switch per ARI port. You cannot
cascade another switch under this first switch.
