Supported Paragon II CIMS and Configurations

The KX III supports the P2CIM-APS2DUAL and P2CIM-AUSBDUAL CIMs, which provide two RJ45 connections to different KVM switches.

Support of these CIMs provides a second path to access the target in the event that one of the KVM switches is blocked or fails.
