Cascading B007-008 KVM Switches

To cascade B007-008 KVM switches, a B054-001-PS2 Server Interface Unit (SIU) is required. The SIU converts the KVM port connector used by the

B060-032-8 to connectors appropriate for the KVM switch that you are installing. Note: Only one B007-008 KVM switch can be cascaded from each KVM

port, regardless of its position in the installation. After cascading a B007-008 KVM switch you cannot cascade any more KVM switches from it.

To cascade a B007-008 KVM switch:

Use a Cat5 cable to connect a KVM port on the B060-032-8 to B054-001-PS2 SIU.

Connect the SIU cables to the console ports of the B007-008 KVM switch to be cascaded.

Using appropriate cables, connect computers/servers to the cascaded B007-008 KVM switch.

Attach the AC power adapter cable to the back of the cascaded B007-008 KVM switch and plug the AC Power Adapter into a Tripp Lite Surge

Suppressor, PDU or UPS System.
