5. In the case of a cascaded connection (when KVM Switch is connected in a
two-level connection)
By using cascaded connections (maximum 1 master and 8 slaves) it is possible to
hook up a maximum of 64 servers.
1) Connect the master switch device's ports one through eight to the second level of
switch devices (called slaves), in the same way as for the [first level].
2) Next, use the special cables to attach the [keyboard/mouse] and [DISP] connector of
the first level switching device (called master) to the [Keyboard], [Mouse], and
[Console] connector on the console ports of the second level slave switch devices.
3) To increase the number of slaves, connect them in the same way as described in
steps 1 and 2 above. Do not connect slaves beyond the second level. Third level
connection does not work.
When the Console Drawer is used in a cascaded connection, the connector
for the slave Console and for the master-side server can be connected
using only the PS/2 special cable. Operation by a cable other than the
special cable for the PS/2 cable will not be possible.
