Adding a Tiered Legacy Switch

Figure 2.11 illustrates a tiered legacy switch configuration.

To add a legacy switch (optional):

1

Mount the SCS into your rack. Locate a UTP cable (up to 30 meters) to
connect your switch to the legacy switch.

2

Attach one end of the UTP cabling to the ARI port on your switch.

3

Connect the other end of the UTP cable to a PS/2 SIP.

4

Connect the SIP to the legacy switch according to the switch
manufacturer's recommendations.

5

Repeat steps 1-4 for all the legacy switches you wish to attach to your
switch.

NOTE: The primary SCS supports only one switch per ARI port or USB port. You cannot
tier a switch to a tiered switch.
