2.9Features and Benefits

!Supports 10 or 100Mb network connections on each of sixteen ports

Magnum 8000X Dual-Speed Fiber Hubs combine two logical hubs --- one at 10 Mbps and one at 100Mbps --- in one physical box supporting two traffic domains. Each port can operate at either 10 or 100Mbps, independently of the other ports.

!Mixed-Media 10 & 100Mb fiber port types in one unit for maximum flexibility

The Magnum 8000X is configurable with up to 16 economical port modules, and any or all of the ports may be either 10 or 100Mbps fiber. RJ-45 ports may also be configured, with per-port selection. Port Modules with all kinds of fiber connector types are supported, making the 8000X Fiber Hub ideal for “fiber-to-the-desktop” applications.

!Switched port in the rear Bonus Port for a FDX fiber backbone, optional

To segment a Magnum 8000X (or stack) from a connected hub or switch using full- duplex fiber operating at 100Mbps, an optional SPM may be installed. This provides distances up to 2Km for the fiber link, and improved performance for the 8000X’s users.

!Stackable and Scaleable Configurations

The Magnum 8000X is equipped with an inter-repeater bus that allows multiple units (one 8000X and up to two 8000X-A units or two DS8016-A) to be stacked, thus supports up to 48 ports with all ports operating as a single dual-speed mixed-media repeater.

!Auto-sensing for speed, 10 or 100Mbps, on each RJ-45 front port

All RJ-45 ports support 10/100 auto-negotiation for speed, IEEE802.3u. compliant.

!LEDs for Chassis and PM Cards

The Magnum 8000X chassis and each of the 16 front-mounted PM cards are equipped with traffic activity and segment-status LEDs, conveniently monitored from the front.

!Installation is “Plug and Play”, Operation is Transparent to Software

The Magnum 8000X operates as a hardware switch between domains, only forwarding those packets from each domain that are needed on the other domain. Internal address tables are self-learning, enabling users to change port connections or 10 or 100Mbps domains without affecting operations.

!Internal Power Supply, Auto-ranging AC voltage and frequency

An internal universal power supply allows any Magnum 8000X unit to be used with the normal AC power types found around the world. (A 48VDC power supply is optional)
