Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC Managed Switch Installation and User Guide 05/07)

connectivity. When installed in a Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC Switch, it supports fiber optic cable distances up the IEEE-standard 100Mbps distance limits, i.e., typically 2km at full-duplex and 412m at half-duplex.

The functionality of this 100BASE-FX multi-mode 8 Port module is essentially the same as the ST and SC-types. It has the same LEDs per port indicating port activity (ACT), Link (LK), and FDX or HDX operation.

5.2.5a 6KP6-MT10ST, 4 @100Mb multi-mode FX , MTRJ Small-Form- Factor and 2@ 10Mb Multi-mode ST-Fiber port

The 6KP6-RJ10ST is a combo module with two different kinds of fiber flavor with two different speeds. The top four ports of MTRJ Small form factor fiber support at 100Mb full-duplex, whereas the bottom two ports multi-mode ST-Fiber support 10Mb half-duplex. This combo module provides more flexibility to the user to connect their legacy 10Mb fiber as well as 100Mb to the Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC Switch.

When installed in a Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC Switch, the 100Mb MTRJ connector supports fiber optic cable distances up to the IEEE-standard 100Mbps distance limits, i.e., typically 2km at full-duplex and 412m at half-duplex. The 10Mb Multi-mode ST-Fiber connector supports the standard fiber optic distance limit of 2Km at Full and Half-duplex both.

The functionality of this 100BASE-FX multi-mode 4 port module is essentially the same as the ST and SC-types. It has the same LEDs per port indicating port activity (ACT), Link (LK), and FDX or HDX operation
