.
The rugged metal case of the Magnum 6KQ will normally protect it from accidental damage in a lab or workplace setting. Maintain an open view of the front to visually monitor the status LEDs. Keep an open area around the unit so that cooling can occur from convection while the unit is in operation. The 6KQ has no fans, so it is silent when in operation. Internal electronics use the case as a heat sink, so the unit may normally be quite warm to the touch.
3.2Connecting Ethernet Media
The Magnum 6KQ Switches are specifically designed to support all standard
Ethernet media types within a single Switch unit. This is accomplished by using a family of different Port Modules which can be individually selected and configured
The various media types supported along with the corresponding IEEE 802.3, 802.3D, 802.3u, 802.3AB and 802.3z standards and connector types are as follows:
IEEE Standard | Media Type | Max. Distance |
Fiber: | mm1 Fiber |

220m ( ft) | ||
| sgl.m2 Fiber | 5Km |
mm1 Fiber | 2.0km (6,562 ft) | |
| sgl.m2 Fiber | 18.0km (95K ft) |
small form factor | mm1 Fiber | 2.0km (6,562 ft) |

3.2.1Connecting Fiber Optic ST-type, “twist-lock”
The following procedure applies to installations using a PM with
1.Before connecting the fiber optic cable, remove the protective dust caps from the tips of the connectors on the PM. Save these dust caps for future use.
