The composite asset strip is especially useful for tracking large devices such as
SAN boxes in the cabinet.
The following diagram illustrates AMS-M3-Z.

Important: DO NOT hot swap or hot plug any AMS-Mx-Z in a composite asset
strip chain after connecting the chain to the PX3TS device. Doing so may
cause the device's FEATURE port to malfunction.
To connect composite asset strips to the PX3TS device:
If there are only 2 or 3 IT devices to track, you can connect only one AMS-M2-Z
or AMS-M3-Z to the PX3TS device. In this case, go to step 2. If there are more
than 2 or 3 IT devices, you need to daisy chain multiple composite asset strips
and start from step 1.
1. (Optional) Daisy chain multiple composite asset strips.
a. Get a standard network patch cable that is within 2 meters.
b. Connect one end of the network cable to the RJ-45 connector labeled
"Output" on the first composite asset strip.
c. Connect the other end of the cable to the RJ-45 connector labeled
"Input" on the secondary composite asset strip.
d. Repeat the same steps to connect more composite asset strips. See
Daisy-Chain Limitations of Composite Asset Strips (on page 71) for the
maximum number of composite asset strips supported per chain.
Note: Different types of composite asset strips can be mixed in a chain.
2. Connect the composite asset strip(s) to the PX3TS device via a standard
network patch cable (CAT5e or higher).
a. Connect one end of the cable to the RJ-45 port labeled "Input" on the
composite asset strip.
▪
For a composite asset strip chain, connect the cable to the "Input"
port of the first asset strip.
b. Connect the other end of the cable to the FEATURE port on the PX3TS
device.
