Cascaded Configurations
NOTE: The Master KVM switch must have equal or more PC ports than that of the Slave
KVM switch. For example, if an 8-port switch is the Master KVM switch, an 8-port or
4-port switch can be used as a Slave KVM switch, but a 16-port switch cannot be used.
The ports labelled PC 1 - PC 8 can be connected to either a computer or a Slave
KVM switch’s CONSOLE port, as shown below. Use only StarTech.com KVM cables to
connect the Master KVM switch’s PC ports and Slave KVM switch’s CONSOLE port, as
shown below:
KVM cables
The maximum number of computers controlled by a master/slave configuration with all
8-port units is 64, including 8 Slave KVM switches and each slave unit connecting to 8
computers as depicted below:
