Magnum 6K32 & 6K32T Managed Switch Installation and User Guide (12/05)

The 4port @10Mb ST fiber modules behave the same as the 8@100Mb ST fiber modules except for the 10Mb speed. For port numbering, ports 1, 2, 5, 6 are present, ports 3, 4. 7, 8 are not present. The default setup on the 10Mb fiber module is half- duplex, which allows the Magnum 6K32T Switch to connect to any 10Mb hub or media converter or almost any other device with a 10Mb fiber Ethernet port. User mode control per port through the MNS software is the same as the other 6K32T modules. The fiber ports support fiber cabling distances according to the 10BASE-FL standard, i.e., 2km distance for multi-mode fiber. (Single-mode for up to 10Km distance may be available as a special order configuration).

2.2.6Gigabit (1000Mbps) port modules

The Magnum 6K32T & 6K32’s offer wide options for Gigabit speed with

multiple choices for the modular slot. The new Magnum 6K32T can be configured with four Gigabit ports (copper or Fiber) maximum. The Gigabit port option for the modular slot comes in a couple of different configurations. The two Gigabit port modules have been offered as GBPM-2OTX (fiber or RJ-45), whereas the single Gigabit module comes in flavors of G+4(10/100 RJ-45 ports) or G+2 (100Mb fiber ports) as shown below in the figure.

The 6K32T modules provide a GBIC opening for insertion of industry-standard GBICs to provide Gigabit (Gb) media flexibility. GBIC models are available for both multi- mode (550m) and single-mode (10, 25, 40, 70)km fiber options, and for Gigabit copper as well with new models appearing often.

The 1000Mb Gigabit fiber-port modules on the Magnum 6K32T are normally set (factory default) to operate at AUTO mode for best fiber distance and performance. The 1000Mbps SC fiber-optic module on the Gigabit -SX and Gigabit-LX transceivers are compatible with the IEEE 802.3z Gigabit standards.

There are two LEDs mounted on each Gigabit port module. The Gigabit fiber
