2.2.2 Eight-port SFF fiber modules (6K8-MTRJ, 6K8-MLC), 100Mb fiber

(below)
In an eight-port SFF fiber port module, all of the fiber ports are of the same
speed (100Mb), mode, and connector type. Models are available with Small Form Factor
(SFF) are multi-mode MT-RJ or LC-type connectors, and single-mode LC-type
connectors.
The 100Mb fiber eight-
port modules for the Magnum
6K32’s normally are set (factory
default) to operate in full-duplex
mode for best fiber distance and
performance. Using the 6K32’s
MNS software, the user may select full- or half-duplex mode per-port through set-up of
the software (See Magnum 6K32 MNS Software Manual) for the flexibility to adapt to
any FDX or HDX type of Fast Ethernet devices).
There are three LED’s per fiber port. The Link (LK) LED indicates “ready for
operation” on that port when lit, the F/H LED indicates operation in full-duplex mode
when ON (half-duplex when OFF), and the blinking ACT LED indicates receiving
Activity on the port. A fiber cable must be connected into a SFF port and the Link (LK)
indicator for that port must be ON (indicating there is a powered-up device at the other
end of the cable) in order for a LK LED to provide valid indications of operating
conditions on that port.
