Combined with a StreamLine Console, the StreamLine KVM switch can be connected to multiple computers with keyboard, mouse and monitor cables as shown in figure 1.

StreamLine KVM Switch in cascade (Master/Slave) Configuration
You can connect a second level of one or more StreamLine KVM switches to "PC 1"~”PC 8” ports of a Master unit. Cascade configuration expands system ability allowing you to select
computers connected to the Master or Slaves. There is only one Master that connects to the StreamLine Console directly operated by a user.
Once connected, StreamLine KVM switches automatically configure themselves to either Master or Slave. Slaves of different StreamLine KVM switch models can be mixed in cascade configuration as shown in figure 2. Note: Master must have equal or more PC ports than that of Slaves, i.e., if an 8 port is a master, another 8 port can be a Slave, but not a 16 port.
