Installation
Before installing the equipment, it is necessary to take the
following precautions:
1.)
If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack
assembly, the environmental temperature around the equipment
must be less than or equal to 50
0
C.
2.)
If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack
assembly, adequate air flow must be maintained for proper and
safe operation.
3.)
If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack
system placement of the equipment must not overload or load
unevenly the rack system.
4.)
If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack
assembly, verify the equipment’s power requirements to prevent
overloading of the building/s electrical circuits.
5.)
If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack
assembly verify that the equipment has a reliable and
uncompromised earthing path.
6.)
If the intra-building wiring (cabling) is involved with
this product(NEBS), then it is recommended to have shielded
cable and the shield is grounded at both ends.
Installation:
This section describes installation of the Magnum 4K-Series Switches, as
well as connection of the various Ethernet media types.
3.1
Locating Magnum 4K24 Switches
The location of a Magnum 4K-Series Switch is dependent on the physical
layout of the network. Typically the Switch is placed in a central wiring location where
groups of network devices need to be connected in order to communicate with each
other. These Switches are typically rack mounted in a wiring closet (see Section 3.3.2
below), but they have rubber feet and can also be installed on a shelf or table top.
Locate an AC receptacle that is within six feet (2 meters) of the intended
Magnum 4K-Series site. The rugged metal case of the Magnum 4K-Series 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
the small fan on the left side,
while the unit is in
operation. See figure below.

Connecting Ethernet Media
The Magnum 4K24 Switches are specifically designed to support all
standard Ethernet media types within a single Switch unit. This is
accomplished by using a family of Fiber-port Modules (FKMs) which can be
individually selected and configured per-port. See Section 2.4 for a description
