You can control an AlterPath Power Management (PM), intelligent power distribution unit (IPDU), by connecting it to the AUX port on the KVM/net. By daisy-chaining any combination of PM models, you can control up to 128 outlets from one KVM/net.
1. Use an RJ-45 CAT5 cable to connect the AUX port on the KVM/net to the In port of your AlterPath PM.
2. This procedure assumes that you have one AlterPath PM connected to the AUX port of the KVM/net.
1. Connect one end of an RJ-45 cable to the Out port of the “master” AlterPath PM, which is connected to the AUX port of the KVM/net.
2. Connect the other end of the RJ-45 cable to the In port of the next AlterPath PM (slave).
3. To connect another PM to the slave, connect one end of an RJ-45 cable to the Out port of an already connected PM.
