Local Installation

Daisy-Chaining Multiple KVM Switches (Optional)

Note: If you are only installing a single SMB KVM-over-IP Switch, skip

to the “Remote Installation” section on page 28.

You can daisy-chain up to 15 additional OmniView SMB and PRO2 KVM Switches to your OmniView SMB KVM-over-IP Switch, allowing a server administrator to manage up to a maximum of 256 servers from one local or remote console. Each daisy-chained KVM Switch is referred to as a “BANK” and is assigned an address. The SMB KVM-over-IP Switch connected to the console keyboard, mouse, and monitor can only function as the “primary” KVM switch. BANKs 01 through 15 are referred to as “secondary” KVM switches.

Note: The SMB KVM-over-IP Switch can only function as the primary KVM switch. You cannot daisy-chain two SMB KVM-over-IP Switches together.

Note: A Daisy-Chain Cable (F1D108-CBL-XX) is required to daisy-chain each KVM Switch and is available through your Belkin reseller, or online at

www.belkin.com (U.S. only).

How to Assign a BANK Address

All SMB CAT5 and PRO2 KVM Switches feature a “BANK DIP” switch. The

“BANK DIP” switch is used to assign the proper BANK address to each

KVM Switch.

•For a multiunit configuration, the “BANK DIP” switch for each secondary unit must be set to a unique BANK address (from 01 through 15). Refer to the chart on page 24 for “BANK DIP” switch settings.
