Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC Managed Switch

Installation and User Guide 05/07)

On the model 6K8-RJ45 module, there are four LEDs for each port, two in the

connector and two separate. 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-

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 6K8-Series (MNS-6K) management software, the user may disable auto-negotiation and fix the desired operation of each RJ-45 port. User may select 10Mb or 100Mb speed and full- or half-duplex mode per-port as per user requirement. (See Magnum MNS-6K Software Manual for details info.).
