Paragon II unit firmware versions 1P0 (UMT2161), 2C2 (UMT242, UMT442, and UMT8), or 3A2
(UMT1664) and User Station (UST1) firmware 4L2 or higher supports an IBM x330 chain of computers as
a second tier by utilizing IBM's Cable Chaining Technology (C2T) and Raritan Computer Interface
Modules (CIMs), UKVMP-x330 or UKVMC-x330.
An IBM x330 rack of up to 42 servers can be accommodated for each Paragon II Matrix Switch channel
port. This Paragon II feature lets users name each x330 server in the rack and see that name in a Paragon II
Selection Menu, instead of utilizing blind x330 shortcut key switching techniques.
