b.

 

Plug the tag connector of the asset tag into a tag port on the blade 
extension strip. 

 

4.

 

Repeat the above step until all blade servers in the chassis are connected 
to the blade extension strip via asset tags. 

5.

 

Plug the tag connector of the blade extension strip into the closest tag port 
of the regular or composite asset strip on the rack. 

 

6.

 

Repeat the above steps to connect additional blade extension strips. Up to 
128 asset tags on blade extension strips are supported per FEATURE port. 

Note: If you need to temporarily disconnect the blade extension strip from the 
asset strip, wait at least 1 second before re-connecting it back, or the PX3TS 
device may not detect it. 

 

Connecting Composite Asset Strips (AMS-Mx-Z) 

A composite asset strip is named AMS-Mx-Z, where x is a number, such as 
AMS-M2-Z or AMS-M3-Z. It is a type of asset strip that functions the same as 
regular MASTER asset strips except for the following differences: 

 

It has two RJ-45 connectors. 

 

Multiple composite asset strips can be daisy chained. 

 

It contains less tag ports than regular asset strips. 

For example, AMS-M2-Z contains two tag ports, and AMS-M3-Z contains 
three tag ports only.
