2161DS Tiered Switch Problems

I have two 2161DS devices both on firmware 04.00.01

If I connect one to the using a PS2 POD I do not see the secondary KVM as tiered.

I have tried swapping the switches round to no avail.

All ideas gratefully accepted !

Unfortunately the digital switches doesnt support cascaded configurations. Supported are Digital to Analog switches or Digital to PEM modules for a tiered configuration.The next generation Dell KVMIP switches will support digital to digital cascaded configurations (sometime in 2010).

Please check below for a detailed explanation:
