Adder Technology CATxIP 1000 manual Cascading multiple units, See also, Cascade tree

Cascading multiple units

The AdderView CATxIP 1000 units support up to eight or sixteen directly connected computer systems, however, this is by

no means the limit. Instead of connecting computers to every output port, you can instead link AdderView CATx 1000 units (not IP variants). Thus, each output of the original AdderView CATxIP 1000 unit can link through to many more computers connected to the secondary AdderView CATx 1000 units.

The combination of AdderView units can be arranged two levels deep forming a tree, or cascade arrangement, with computer systems situated at either level within that cascade tree.

Note: It is not possible to cascade two AdderView CATxIP 1000 units together because they do not have a Remote User Port on their front panels. The lower units must always be the non-IP AdderView CATx 1000 variants.

The cascade tree

The diagram shows how an AdderView CATxIP 1000 unit and multiple AdderView CATx 1000 units can be cascaded to two levels. Computer systems can be connected at any level. The local or global users can access computer systems situated anywhere within the cascade tree.
