STEP (D): Connect Computers to the TMCAT17 System
You can connect computers to available channel ports of any KVM switch
in the system, including channel ports on the base switch and second-tier
devices. See Steps 1 to 4 of
Connecting the Equipment (on page 14) for
instructions on connecting computers.
MCIMs and MCUTP cables are mutually exclusive for making computer
connections to a
second-tier MCCAT28/216 switch. If both types are
used to connect computers to a second-tier switch, video or OSD
issues may occur.
One-User MCCAT Switches
You can connect "one-user" MCCAT switches to a TMCAT1728 or
TMCAT17216 base switch for organizing a two-tier system.
Follow the major steps described in Establishing a Two-Tier System (on
page 87) to install "one-user" MCCAT switches as second-tier devices.
The only difference is that a "one-user" MCCAT switch does not have the
User 2 port so the way to connect it is different from the way to connect a
"two-user" MCCAT switch. For instructions on connecting "one-user"
MCCAT switches, see
How to Connect MCCAT18/116 Switches to the
Base Switch (on page 91).
MCUTP cables are compatible with two-user MCCAT switches, but
incompatible with "one-user" MCCAT switches so you must use MCIMs
to connect computers to "one-user" MCCAT switches.
