Cascaded Devices

secondary KVM units to a primary KVM/net. Cascading allows
administrators to increase the number of managed devices to up to 1024
servers with a centralized configuration and access interface.
A maximum of 32 secondary KVM devices can be cascaded from the primary
KVM/net extending the number of KVM ports to a maximum of 512 for two-
user configuration (i.e. two connections to each cascaded device), or 1024 for
a one-user configuration.
