2.2General Information

Designed for “fiber-to-the-desktop” applications that are economical and high performance, the Magnum 8000X accepts a variety of fiber modules so that users can choose the fiber port types desired. A dozen different 100Mbps and 10 Mbps fiber port module types are supported, and they are factory or field configurable.

Rich with configuration options, the 8000X units support either 10 or 100Mbps fiber modules per port, a rear bonus port accepts optional Switch Port Modules for switched backbone connections, stacking up to 3 units high (48 ports) is supported with DS8016-A Hubs configurable in the stacks, rack-mounting is standard, optional 48V DC power supplies (even dual-source DC or redundant DC) are available for telecom equipment applications, and RJ-45 ports when used are auto-sensing for speed.

2.3Product Description

The Magnum 8000X brings you the future of Fiber Optic connectivity. The Magnum 8000X based on new technology is a highly versatile, cost effective Mixed- Media Fiber hubs that provides the flexibility of configurable fiber and RJ-45 ports, of 10 Mbps or 100Mbps Ethernet speed per hub. Each RJ-45 port is independently auto- sensing for 10/100 speed, adapting to match the speed of the connecting device. These capabilities provide the ultimate in flexibility for small to medium sized “fiber to desktop” and “fiber-for-security” networks that are gradually transitioning from 10 Mbps Ethernet to 100Mbps Fast Ethernet. Sixteen port slots are located on the front of the unit, are accommodated in a 1U rack-mount package.

Combinations of standard Ethernet media types are supported. These include 10BASE-FX, 10BASE-T, 100BASE-FX, 100BASE-TX, and (proposed) 100BASE-SX. The Magnum Dual -Speed 8000X supports almost all the popular fiber port connector i.e. ST, SC, FC, MT-RJ, and VF-45 in multi-mode or single-mode as applicable, and can be installed as 100Mbps or 10 Mbps speed (10Mb port connector types are ST, SC and FC only). The Magnum 8000X hubs support two shared traffic domains, one at 100Mbps and one at 10 Mbps, with an internal bridge or switch interconnecting the two domains. The automatic per-port speed-sensing is continuous, allowing a connected device to change speed and re-LINK at any time without impairing the operation of the other ports and connected devices.

The Magnum 8000X is designed with the capability to be stacked with other Magnum 8000X-A’s and/or with Magnum 8016-A’s. Magnum 8000X units may be
