Connecting the LCD Rack Console with Multiple PRO3 KVM Switches (Daisy-Chaining)
You can daisy-chain up to 15 additional PRO3 KVM Switches (F1DA104Z, F1DA108Z, F1DA116Z, F1DA104Q, F1DA108Q, and F1DA116Q), allowing a server administrator to manage up to a maximum of 256 servers from one console. Each daisy-chained PRO3 KVM Switch is referred to as a “BANK” and is assigned an address. The LCD Rack Console is BANK 00 and is referred to as the “primary” KVM switch. BANKs 01 through 15 are referred to as “secondary” KVM switches.
Note: The LCD Rack Console (F1DC108C-US, F1DC116C-US) must be designated as the primary KVM switch. Refer to the diagram below.
