7. Single-Level Installation Note: Prior to installation, ensure that all devices being connected to the B060-032-8 are powered off. In a single-level installation, there are no additional KVM switches cascaded or daisy-chained from the B060-032-8. To set up a single-level installation, refer to the following steps: 1 Connect the console to the Console Interface Unit (CIU). Select the appropriate CIU for the console you are installing. (See chart on page 4 for more information.) Plug your key

8. Multilevel Installation You can greatly expand the number of computers connected to the B060-032-8 by performing a multilevel installation. The B060-032-8 supports two types of multilevel installation: Cascading Cascading involves using the KVM port(s) of a parent KVM switch (the fi rst B060-032-8 KVM Switch that you are cascading from) to connect to the user ports of a child KVM switch (any KVM Switch that is cascaded off the parent switch). Daisy-Chaining Daisy-chaining involves adding a

8. Multilevel Installation Cascading B060-032-8 Matrix KVM Switches Cascading B060-032-8 KVM switches off of B060-032-8 KVM switches is the preferred method of expanding the number of connected computers/servers, as it is the method that provides the most functionality. Cascaded B060-032-8 KVM Switches can support eight simultaneous users, whereas a daisy-chained B060-032 supports only four, a daisy-chained B060-016-2 supports only two and a cascaded B007-008 supports only one.

8. Multilevel Installation Cascading B007-008 KVM Switches To cascade B007-008 KVM switches, a B054-001-PS2 Server Interface Unit (SIU) is required. The SIU converts the KVM port connector used by the B060-032-8 to connectors appropriate for the KVM switch that you are installing. Note: Only one B007-008 KVM switch can be cascaded from each KVM port, regardless of its position in the installation. After cascading a B007-008 KVM switch you cannot cascade any more KVM switches from it. To cascad

8. Multilevel Installation 8.2 Daisy-Chaining* Up to seven B060-032 or B060-016-2 Matrix KVM Switches can be daisy-chained to the fi rst-level B060-032-8. When daisy chained with the B060-032 or B060-016-2, the B060-032-8 must occupy the master (fi rst-level) position, while the B060-032 or B060-016-2 must be used as the slave KVM switch(es) (those KVM switches daisy-chained from the master KVM switch). When daisy-chaining B060-032 or B060-016-2 KVM switches, KVM Ports 1–4 on the fi rst-level B06

9. Basic Operation Hot Plugging The B060-032-8 supports hot plugging—components can be removed and added by unplugging their cables from the ports with no need to shut down the KVM switch. In order for hot plugging to work properly, the procedures described below must be followed. Switching Daisy-Chained KVM Switch Positions You can switch the position of daisy-chained B060-032 or B060-016-2 KVM switches by unplugging them from the old master KVM switch and plugging them into a new one.

10. Administrator Utility 10.2 Topology Considerations The use of RJ45 KVM port connectors, combined with Auto Signal Compensation (ASC), allows signals to travel up to 1000 ft. (300m) while maintaining reliability and high video resolution. This enables the B060-032-8 installation to take advantage of the internal Cat5e and Cat6 wiring built-in to most modern commercial buildings. Since the data signals are not transmitted in packets, the transmission cannot go through network hubs or switche
