..... Avocent® Matrix High Performance KVM Switching System
On-screen Display (OSD) interface, as if all the target devices were connected to one switch. To
use seamless cascading, you will need to configure the cascaded switches as a master and slave
(s). There can be only one master in a cascaded system.
NOTE:
If you need to limit the number of interconnects being used in your cascaded system, you can
connect the transmitters and receivers directly to a slave switch.
The switch that is set to Master Mode is used to administer the other switches, transmitters and
receivers in the system through the OBWI. In a system with only one switch, that switch should
always be set to Master Mode.
When a switch is set to Slave Mode, the web user interface on the switch will become very limited. A
slave cannot administer other devices.

other end of the cable to a numbered RJ-45 port on the slave switch.
