The table below lists KVM switches that are compatible with the KM0832 and
the type of expansion that they use. (KVM switches listed below are sold
separately. Contact your dealer for details.)
Please keep in mind the following limitations when installing more than one
KVM switch. Where distances are mentioned, they refer to the cumulative
length of all cables used to connect the devices.
Š The maximum distance from any console module to the lowest-level
KVM switch (or Matrix Plus KVM adapter cable in a chain) cannot
exceed 300 meters.
Š The maximum distance between any two KM0832 cannot exceed 150
meters.
Š Once a non-KM0832 KVM switch has been cascaded from a KVM port,
no other KVM switch can be cascaded from that KVM port.
Š The maximum distance between the KM0832 and the last KM0432 or
KM0216 in the daisy chain cannot exceed 20 meters, regardless of the
number of KM0432 or KM0216 in the daisy chain.
Š The maximum distance between any two KVM switches in the daisy chain
cannot exceed 10 meters.
Š Only 4 or 2 KVM console users (or one KM0832 Administrator Utility
user) at a time can access daisy-chained KM0432 or KM0216.
