The above provided information enables a managed station( a PC or Console terminal) to connect directly to the switch using a straight through cable.(Note: The Null-Modem (DB-9) cable is optional and can be order from the factory, along with the unit

NOTE for Power Substations: In support of the IEEE 1613 Class 2 standard, GCI advises that, for substation applications, the serial RJ-45console ports are intended for temporary connectivity to other equipment such as PCs. Since the console port connection is temporary, it is excluded from IEEE 1613 packet- loss testing per the 1613 standard-defined test procedure.

4.0OPERATION

This chapter describes the functions and operation of the Magnum 6K25e Switch.

4.1Switching Functionality

A Magnum 6K25e provides switched connectivity at Ethernet wire-speed

among all of its ports. The Magnum 6K25e supports10/100Mbs for copper media and 10 or 100Mb separate traffic domains for fiber ports to maximize bandwidth utilization and network performance. All ports can communicate to all other ports in a Magnum 6K25e, but local traffic on a port will not consume any of the bandwidth on any other port.
