Connecting Multiple SMB CAT5 KVM Switches
(Daisy-Chaining)
You can daisy-chain up to 16 SMB CAT5 KVM Switches, allowing a server
administrator to manage up to a maximum of 256 servers from one console.
Each daisy-chained SMB CAT5 KVM Switch is referred to as a "BANK" and is
assigned an address. The SMB CAT5 KVM Switch connected to the console
keyboard, mouse, and monitor is BANK 00 and is referred to as the "primary"
KVM switch. BANKs 01 through 15 are referred to as "secondary" KVM switches.
NOTE: Your SMB CAT5 KVM Switch is backward-compatible with Belkin
OmniView PRO2 KVM Switches. You can daisy-chain any combination of up to
16 SMB CAT5 and PRO2 KVM Switches.
NOTE: A Daisy-Chain Cable (F1D108-CBL) is required to daisy-chain each
SMB CAT5 KVM Switch and is available through your Belkin reseller, or online
at www.belkin.com (U.S. only).
How to Assign a BANK Address
All SMB CAT5 KVM Switches feature a "BANK DIP" switch. The "BANK DIP"
switch is used to assign the proper BANK address to each SMB CAT5
KVM Switch.
• For a single-unit configuration, set the "BANK DIP" switch on the SMB CAT5
KVM Switch to the "primary" (BANK address 00) setting. This is the factory
default setting.
• For a multi-unit configuration, the "BANK DIP" switch on the primary KVM
switch must be set to "BANK address 00". Each secondary unit must be set to
a unique BANK address (from 01 through 15). Refer to the chart on page 24 for
"BANK DIP" switch settings.
