Let me see if have this right still:
You want to connect the SSP host port to the Device port on MRCC1 then connect MRCC1 to MRCC2 and connect MRCC2 to the Laptop via the Device port? This should work in theory, but routing becomes more complex when you add the second unit, and I still can't say for sure how the SSP will do hosting the MRCC as a Device, as it has 12 ins and outs. Connecting the 2 MRCCs is pretty straight forward, and just uses a Shielded Ethernet cable to connect them. Another consideration is that port naming doesn't work between 2 Units. I can't remember what needs to happen when reconnecting, i.e., do you need to power cycle the units to make the connections reappear etc., but if that doesn't seem daunting, I think what you describe should work.
Sorry if I have it the wrong way round, if that is the case let me know so I can confirm the plan before you pull the trigger. I'd hate to send you off to get something you can't use.
