2.5 Structuring your LINDY CPU Switch Dual MP installation

A single LINDY CPU Switch Dual MP 32354 may be used to manage and control up
to 16 computers (see figure 4). For larger numbers of computers, Dual MP units may
be cascaded in a tree structure with LINDY CPU Switch Dual products to form a
video switching network (see figure 5). The LINDY CPU Switch unit at the top of this
tree structure is normally used to control all the cascaded LINDY CPU Switches
although other configurations are possible.
The LINDY CPU Switch Dual MP and LINDY CPU Switch Dual are fitted with an
intelligent communication system that enables it to detect and communicate with
other LINDY CPU Switches so that it is able to positively verify that all the cascaded
LINDY CPU Switches have correctly responded to a switching request from the user.
The LINDY CPU Switches communicate with each other via the keyboard cables.
LINDY CPU Switch Dual MP may be cascaded in a very flexible manner. Either 1 or
2 links may be made between cascaded LINDY CPU Switches. The number of
independent users supported by the system is determined by the number of cascade
links that have been installed. If two cascade links are made then two users have
simultaneous access to ports on the cascaded LINDY CPU Switches. The LINDY
CPU Switch intelligently manages the cascade links and allocates them on a first
come first served basis rather like a telephone network.
LINDY CPU Switch Dual MP may also be cascaded to some other LINDY KVM
switches although some restrictions may apply. Please consult LINDY or your
supplier if you would like more information.
When cascading LINDY CPU Switch Dual MP keep in mind the following rules
The maximum number of layers in a LINDY CPU Switch Dual MP / Dual cascade
is four.
You may cascade Dual MP / Dual units with 1 or 2 KVM links. The number of
KVM links that you install defines the number of simultaneous uses that are
supported.
