Connecting Blade Extension Strips
For blade servers, which are contained in a single chassis, you can use
a blade extension strip to track individual blade servers.
Raritan's blade extension strip functions similar to a Raritan asset sensor
but requires a tag connector cable for connecting to a tag port on the
regular asset sensor or AMS-M2-Z. The blade extension strip contains 4
to 16 tag ports, depending on which model you purchased.
The diagram illustrates a tag connector cable and a blade extension strip
with 16 tag ports.
