Chapter 5 Setting up a Two-Tier System
You can connect multiple SM27A17643 KVM switches to organize a two-tier system, expanding
the number of available channels. The number of connected servers can be expanded up to 64.
Overview
To organize a "two-tier" system, just connect one or multiple SM27A17643 switches to a
SM27A17643 switch.
All SM27A17643 switches connected to the same SM27A17643 switch are the SECOND-TIER
devices, and the FIRST-TIER SM27A17643 switch that connects these second-tier devices is the
"base switch".
Servers can be connected to any available channel ports in the system, including channel ports
on the base switch.
