on the port. A fiber cable must be connected into a SFF port and the Link (LK) indicator for that port must be ON (indicating there is a powered-up device at the other end of the cable) in order for a LK LED to provide valid indications of operating conditions on that port.
2.2.2Four-Port Copper Module, 6KQ4-RJ45
The 6KQ’s 4-port Copper module, model 6K4-RJ45, provides four 10/100Mb switched
RJ-45 ports. The 10/100Mb | 1 | | | | | 2 | | | 3 | 4 | | |

crossover (MDIX) for operation at 10 or 100Mb speed in full- or half-duplex mode. (i.e., each independently selects a mode and speed to match the device at the other end of the twisted pair cable).
(See Section 4.3 for auto-negotiation and MDIX details).
On the model 6KQ-RJ45 module, there are four LEDs for each port, two integrated into the connector, and two below the connector. The LK (Link) LED indicates “ready for operation” on that port when lit. The blinking ACT (Activity) LED indicates receiving Activity on that port when lit. The 10/100 LED indicates operation at 100Mb speed when ON and at 10 Mb speed when OFF (when auto-negotiation is not disabled). The FDX/HDX LED is ON to indicate full-duplex operation and OFF to indicate the half-duplex mode. A twisted pair cable must be connected into an RJ-45 port and the Link (LK) indicator for that port must be ON (indicating there is a powered-up device at the other end of the cable) in order for a LK LED to provide valid indications of operating conditions on that port.
Using the 6KQ (MNS-6K) management software, the user may disable auto- negotiation and fix the desired operation of each RJ-45 port. The user may select 10Mb or 100Mb speed and full- or half-duplex mode per-port as per user requirements. (See Magnum MNS-6K Software Manual for details info.).
2.2.3PoE (power pass-through), model P6KQ4-RJ45 (MDIX), 10/100Mb 4-port The PoE (Power-over-Ethernet)RJ-45 ports are similar to regular RJ-45 ports,
except they have the capability of providing power on each port to power up the PD devices, per the IEEE802.3af PoE standard. The power-pass-through PoE modules are
