Go Further For Less with Daisy Chaining
Connects multiple displays through a single port to utilize every port of the
Ethernet switch and maximize their value
Easily expandable – cabling and system deployment is easy with no huge
Ethernet switches and fewer cables needed
Perfect for large-scale deployment covering hundreds of meters, such as
hotel facilities, airports, university campuses, stations, shopping malls, and
exhibition centers
Note:
Depending on your network architecture, we recommend daisy
chaining up to 30 units. Please contact ATEN representatives for more
details.
For Daisy Chain installation setup for VE8952 units, only the first
level of VE8952 supports PoE powering function. All the other
VE8952 units installed on the second level or above will need power
adapter and PoE does not work.
