Redundancy Function
Extender modules with redundant connectors for interconnect cables can be simultaneously operated with
both connectors at a single matrix or a matrix Grid (from firmware version V04.00).
The connector labeled with
Link 1
at the KVM extender is meant for the primary connection. If the
connection on CON Unit or CPU Unit side is interrupted due to any problem, the connection will be
automatically re-established through the second connector labeled with
Link 2
.
For this kind of redundancy function, there is no need for any configuration of the matrix or the extender
modules.
