Product Description - Magnum 10KG Managed Switch
The Magnum10KG Switch provides the bandwidth and advanced port
configurability for data-intensive utility and industrial applications such as the Smart
Grid. New advanced thermal design techniques (patent pending) enable the 10KG to
deliver high reliability and configurability even at extended operating temperatures.
Special rack-mount cooling features include Thermal Fins for extra heat dissipation and
internal heat transfer techniques that use the case as a heat sink. Cooler operation of
internal electronic components leads to longer life-time and increased reliability.
Next-Generation industrial switch features, especially for power utility
facilities in the Smart Grid, importantly include high precision IEEE 1588v2 timing
synchronization with precision as low as single-digit nanoseconds. The Magnum
10KG provides an advanced level of 1588v2 timing features and accuracy, using
integrated hardware and software. Advanced timing is supported on 100Mb and
Gb ports, and is configurable on both fiber and copper port types.
The Magnum 10KG also offers configurable Dual Hot-Swappable power
supplies for redundancy and increased reliability. Both high voltage AC/DC and
low voltage DC hot-swappable power supplies are configurable in the Magnum
10KG. Matching power supply types are normally selected for each of the two hot-
swappable slots. Software monitors each power supply, and can signal when a power
supply module replacement is needed. The swap-out can readily be done while the 10KG
Switch continues in operation.
The eight port configuration slots in the Magnum 10KG provide the flexibility
for network designers to configure up to eight fiber or copper Gb ports and up to 16 100
Mb SFF fiber or copper ports. Copper ports can optionally be Power- Sourcing PoE.
Modules may be configured for regular port types, IEEE 1588 v2 timing, or
combinations. See the 10KG Product bulletin for configuration details.
