Series connecting KVM switches

Hi all

I use a Master View mini-KVM switch (model CS-12) to switch between two
machines. I have a spare identical switch.

I want to introduce a third PC into the system, and it seems that I
could do this by attaching the output of the first switch to one input
of the second switch with the other input connected to the third PC.

Can anyone advise whether this is a workable solution, or otherwise.

Tks , miken

This should work fine though there may be some degredation in video quality. Ive stacked kvms in racks for server management before but the caveat is that the video needs in that circumstance are pretty limited.

HTH.
