The Magnum 6K32T was designed for heavy duty Carrier class and Industrial applications that require high port density and secure devices which save in cost and rack space to provide reliable solutions. This rack mountable managed switch comes with a wide variety of DC/AC options. Software includes MNS-6K with support for modular ports.

The modular option with two slots explores this managed switch’s extra capability to meet any 10 or 100 or Gigabit requirement effectively satisfying any demand for complex Ethernet. The Triple Play demand of bandwidth to meet “voice- data-video” over Ethernet will be handled efficiently by this managed switch and will play an effective role in providing modularity to the solution.

The growing demand of security and “Ease of use” are the other adding features of this new managed switch. The switch allows the users to secure their network through port security, Radius X, Tacacs+ and Snmpv3 and provide an effective solution of ease of use through “Secure Web based management and scripts feature to manage the 6K32T switch remotely”. The 6K32T loaded with robust MNS-6K firmware is specially designed to meet the future demand of Ethernet requirement with cost-effective secure solutions. The Magnum 6K32T is also available in a Reverse model option, where the LEDs are on the front and the available ports along with the power supply area found on the rear side. This configuration is mostly used for carrier-class market.

The modules which may be configured and used in the modular slots of the Magnum 6K32T are described here.
