Expanding through stacking
In Stacking mode, you can switch multiple matrix switches at the same time.
For this, connect the matrix switches via Bus ports and assign them with continuous
bus addresses.
Each stacking matrix switch consists of a matrix switch that provides the KVM Main
Channel . You can add up to 9 satellite matrix switches to the matrix switch. The sat-
ellites can be used either as Video Follower Channel or as USB/RS232 Main Channel .
When using three matrix switches, for example, you can transmit a second video
signal and USB 2.0 signals in addition to the standard signals of a user module
(video signal and keyboard and mouse signals):
Connecting a stack matrix switch
A stack matrix switch is a matrix switch that transmits additional signals of a com-
puter or a console.
A stack matrix switch is not switched by users, but by the primary matrix switch. If
the user accesses a port at the primary matrix switch, the port is also accessed at the
stack matrix switches.
You can include up to ten matrix switches(1 × primary, 9 × satellites) in a stack cas-
cade.
IMPORTANT: Within a channel, you can only use compatible target and user 
modules:
Video Follower Channel: User and target modules of the DVI-CON or DVI-CPU series
USB/RS232 Main Channel: User and target modules of the U2-CON or
U2-CPU series
NOTE: Connect the user modules of one console to the same port numbers of the
different channels.
The same applies for the different target modules of one computer.
