The Ethernet cable updates the mapping data between screens, it does NOT update the software which must be done separately on each screen using the USB port. Also, if you want approach charts they must be put on a USB stick and attached to each screen that will be displaying the approach charts. You will need access to each screen's USB port.
Is the 3rd Artificial Horizon overkill? You do have redundancy with two screens if you have two ADHRS.
