(MDIX) features to eliminate the use of cross-over cables. The two fiber ports operate at
100Mbps full-duplex (default). User mode control per port through the MNS software is
also the same.
On Magnum “4+2” Combo modules, there are four LED’s for each RJ-45 port,
which indicate status as described for the 6K8-RJ45 in Section 2.2.3 above. The fiber
port LEDs indicate status the same way as described for the SFF fiber modules in Section
2.2.2 above. Color-coding on the panel of the module shows which LEDs belong to
which port.
The Magnum Combo six-
port modules are also available with
4@ MTRJ 100Mb mm SFF fiber and
2@10Mb fiber mm ST ports, or 4@
RJ45 10/100 copper and 2@10Mb
fiber mm ST ports. The
4@ RJ-45 + 2@ 10 Mb ST operation of the SFF fiber and the RJ-45 half of
the module is as described for those port types above. For detailed information about
10Mb mm ST fiber half of the module, see Section 2.2.5.
The 4-port @10Mb ST fiber modules behave the same as the 4@100Mb ST
fiber modules except for the 10Mb speed. For port numbering, ports 1, 2, 5, 6 are present,
ports 3, 4. 7, 8 are not present. There is also a similar 100Mb fiber SC module.
The default setup on the 10Mb fiber module is half-duplex, which allows the
Magnum 6K8-Series Switch to connect to any 10Mb hub or media converter or almost
any other device with a 10Mb fiber Ethernet port. The default setting of the 100Mb fiber
module is full duplex. User mode-control per port through the MNS “port settings”
software is the same as the other 6K8-Series modules.
The fiber ports support fiber-cabling distances according to the 10BASE-FL
and 100BASE-FX standards, i.e., 2km distance for multi-mode fiber. (Single-mode for
up to greater distance may be available as a special order, request quote).
