4.
Position the SFP transceiver correctly before insertion, and then insert the SFP
transceiver carefully, until the transceiver connector snap into the place in the
socket
connector.
5.
Connect the Transmit (TX) port on the Magnum module to the Receive (RX)
port of the remote device. Connect the Receive (RX) port on the module to the
Transmit (TX) port of the remote device.
The LINK LED on the front of the module will illuminate and turn Green, when a proper
connection has been established at both ends (and when power is ON in the unit). If
LINK is not lit or OFF after cable connection, the normal cause is improper cable
polarity. Swap the fiber cables at the module connector and also check the connectivity
on the target device to remedy this situation.
Reconfigure or reboot both of the devices if required.
If connected properly, you can check via (MNS-6K) software for verifying the validity of
SFP ports.

Table-Top or Shelf Mounting
The
Magnum 10KG Series Managed Switches can be easily mounted on a
table-top or any suitable horizontal surface. They have four rubber feet to provide
stability without scratching finished surfaces.
3.3.1 Rack-mounting
options
Installation of the Magnum 10KG Switch in a 19” rack is a simple procedure.
The units are 1.5U (2.63”) high for Thermal fin version and 1U (1.74”) high for non-
Thermal fin version. When properly installed, the front-mounted LED status indicators
should be in plain view and easy to read.
Rack-mount installation requires special 19” front mount rack brackets and
screws (included with each Magnum 10KG unit). These brackets attach to the each side
of the Switch (specifically designed left and right side brackets for the Thermal fin
version), which is then typically fastened into a standard 19” RETMA rack.
Optional Rear mount rack brackets are available for added security and/or
vibration protection. Available for Thermal finned and non-Thermal finned chassis.
Inquire with your Sales representative for additional information.
3.3.2 Rack-mounting,
Reverse mount option
The optional Reverse Magnum 10KGR Model has all of the cabling (Ethernet
cabling, power cabling) connectors in the rear, and the status LEDs and Console port in
the front. The status LEDs that are co-incident with the ports are still present and a
second or dual set of LEDs are used for status visibility in the front of the unit, showing
the same data.
