Cascade Configuration
Connection
Before connecting a device (a computer or another NEWSTAR
SWITCH product) to the master under power, you must turn off the
device. Only PS/2 port is operable for cascade operation, see
Figure 7 for details.
Figure 7: Cascade Connection
Note
: The Master must have equal or more ‘PC x’ ports than that of
the slave, i.e., if an 8-port switch is the Master, an 8-port or
4-port switch can be a Slave, but not a 16-port one. PS/2-only
models can be cascaded with USB-PS/2 universal models.
