3. Installation
3. Use a daisy-chain cable (described in the Cables section) to connect the Chain Out
port of the parent unit to the Chain In port of the child unit. The distance between any
two KVM switches in a daisy-chain must not exceed 49 ft. (15 m). The distance
between the first KVM switch and the last KVM switch in a daisy-chain must not
exceed 328 ft. (100 m), regardless of the number of KVM switches in the entire chain.
4. Use a KVM cable kit (described in the Cables section) to connect the keyboard, video
and mouse ports of a computer to any available port on the KVM switch. The distance
between the KVM switch and each connected computer must not exceed 33 ft. (10 m).
5. Repeat the above steps for any additional KVM switches and computers you wish to
add to the chain.
6. To power up the installation:
a. Plug in the power adapter for the first station. Wait a few seconds to allow the unit
to determine its Station ID.
b. Plug in the power adapters for each subsequent station in the installation (i.e.
second station, third station, etc.). Each KVM switch has an LED display on its front
panel to indicate its Station ID (the Station ID for the first station is 01, the ID for
the second station is 02, the ID for the third station is 03, etc.).
In each case, wait for the Station ID to be displayed on the Station ID LED before plugging
in the next station.
3.5 Multiple Station (Cascaded) Installation
The B022-U08 KVM Switch can be cascaded off of a B020-016-17-IP Console KVM
Switch to expand the number of connected computers. Before you can start a cascaded
installation, you must upgrade the B022-U08 firmware to be cascade compatible. (See
Firmware Upgrade for details.) For cascaded installation details, see the owner's manual
for the B020-016-17-IP Console KVM Switch.
