Cascading an HP Server Console Switch G2 under an
HP IP Console Switch G2
The following figure shows an HP Server Console Switch G2 cascaded to an HP IP Console Switch G2.
Do not use interface adapters to cascade console switches. If interface adapters are used to cascade console
switches, you do not have a seamless integration, and you lose Virtual Media support.
To cascade the console switches:
1. Connect a UTP CAT5 or better cable to the interface adapter port on the console switch.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the tiering port on the secondary console switch.
