Magnum 6K32F/FR/FC/FRC Managed Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)
2.2.5
Four-Port 10 Mb mm Fiber ST Modules
The 4port @10Mb ST fiber modules behave the same as the 8@100Mb ST
fiber modules except for the 10Mb speed. For port numbering, ports 1, 2, 5, 6 are present,
ports 3, 4, 7, 8 are not present. The default setup on the 10Mb fiber module is half-
duplex, which allows the Magnum 6K32F Series Switch to connect to any 10Mb hub or
media converter or almost any other device with a 10Mb fiber Ethernet port. User mode
control per port through the MNS software is the same as the other 6K32F Series
modules. The fiber ports support fiber cabling distances according to the 10BASE-FL
standard, i.e., 2km distance for multi-mode fiber. (Single-mode for up to 10Km distance
may be available as a special order configuration).
2.2.6
Gigabit (1000Mbps) port modules
The Magnum 6K32F Series switches offer wide options for Gigabit speed with
multiple choices for the modular slot. The new Magnum 6K32F Series can be configured
with eight Gigabit ports (copper or Fiber) maximum. The Gigabit port option for the
modular slot comes in a couple of different configurations. The two Gigabit port modules
have been offered as GBPM-2OTX (fiber or RJ-45), whereas the single Gigabit module
comes in flavors of G+4(10/100 RJ-45 ports) or G+2 (100Mb fiber ports) as shown
below in the figure.
1@ 1000Mb Fiber SC + 2@ 100Mb SC 1@ 1000Mb Fiber SC + 4@10/ 100Mb
The 6K32F Series modules provide a GBIC opening for insertion of industry-standard
GBICs to provide Gigabit (Gb) media flexibility. GBIC models are available for both
multi-mode (550m) and single-mode (10, 25, 40, 70, 120)km fiber options, and for
Gigabit copper as well with new models appearing often.
