Cascading with Legacy Switches

To add a legacy switch (optional):

1

Mount the switch into your rack. Locate a UTP cable to connect your RCS
to the legacy switch.

2

Attach one end of the UTP cabling to the ARI port on the Console Switch.

3

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

4

Connect the SIP to your 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 RCS supports only one switch per ARI port. You cannot cascade
another switch under this first switch.

NOTE: When cascading with an RCS, an 8-port or 16-port analog console
switch is not supported as the primary unit. The RCS must be the primary unit.
