Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC Managed Switch

Installation and User Guide 05/07)

The 100Mb fiber segment must operate in full-duplex (FDX) mode, i.e. the full-duplex (factory default) setting for 100Mbps fiber ports must be used, and

The worst-case OPB of the fiber link must be greater than the fiber cable’s passive Attenuation.

(Attenuation = Cable loss + LED aging loss + Insertion loss + safety factor)

3.3Table-Top or Shelf Mounting

The Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC Managed Switches can be easily mounted

on a table-top or any suitable horizontal surface. They have four rubber feet to provide stability without scratching finished surfaces.

3.3.1Rack-mounting (for 19” RETMA racks), Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC’s

Installation of a Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC Fiber Switch in a 19” rack is a simple procedure. The units are 1U (1.70”) high. When properly installed, the front- mounted LED status indicators should be in plain view and easy to read.

Rack-mount installation requires special 19” rack-mounted brackets and screws (included with each Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC unit). These brackets attach to the front sides of the
