5.10 Eight Automation Panel 900 units via onboard SDL and SDL AP Link
Four Automation Panel 900 units (max. UXGA) are connected to the integrated SDL interface (onboard) via SDL.
Four additional Automation Panel 900 units (max. UXGA) are connected to the optional SDL transmitter (AP Link).
The Automation Panels in each line must be the same type. The two lines show different content (Extended Desk-
top), but panels in the same line show the same content (Display Clone).
USB is supported up to a maximum distance (SDL segment 1 + SDL segment 2) of 30m on the first two panels
(front and back side). From a distance of 30 m and longer, USB is only available for the first panel on each line.
USB devices can only be connected directly to the Automation Panel (without hub).

5.10.1 Basic system requirements
The following table shows the possible combinations of APC810 system unit and CPU board to implement the
configuration shown in the figure above. If a combination results in a limitation of the maximum resolution, this is
also indicated (e.g. when connecting a non-B&R Automation Panel 900 device).
