detailed information, refer to the user documentation
accompanying Raritan asset strips.
 Composite asset strips:
Composite asset strip models:
• AMS-M2-Z and AMS-M3-Z
• AMS-M2U
• A composite asset strip has two RJ-45 connectors but fewer tag
ports.
• Composite asset strips are especially useful for tracking large
devices, such as SAN boxes or IT equipment mounted in
non-traditional rack space.
• Composite asset strips can be daisy chained as shown below.
 Blade extension strips:
• For blade servers, which are contained in a single chassis, you
can use a blade extension strip to track individual blade servers.
A blade extension strip contains 4 to 16 tag ports. Below shows
•
a blade extension strip with 16 tag ports.
• The blade extension strip is connected to a tag port on a regular
or composite asset strip via a Raritan's tag connector cable.
