Product Description - Magnum 6KM Mobile Ethernet Switch
Magnum™ 6KM Mobile Ethernet Switches provide configurability in Heavy
Duty mobile networking applications. The high performance Magnum 6KM base unit
comes with four 10/100 M12 copper ports (either regular or PoE). Up to four 100Mb
fiber ports or up to four more 10/100 M12 copper ports, or combinations, may also be
configured. Two Gigabit ports may also be configured with 10/100/1000 M12 copper
ports or LC-type fiber ports.
M12 military-style port connectors for copper Ethernet ports (instead of RJ45
connectors) make the 6KM distinctive, and withstand the vibration and shock found in
mobile applications. To connect the M12 port cables, simply align the keyed female
connector to the 6KM male connector and twist the threaded lock to secure.
Magnum 6KM comes with the best-of-breed MNS-6K managed networks
software. (MNS-6K-SECURE optional) See the datasheet for more information at

Magnum 6KMs are ideal for mobile networks such as on passenger railways,
public service and emergency vehicles, shipboard, mining equipment, and military
vehicles. Applications include in-carriage networking of IP-enabled infotainment
systems, security and surveillance systems, and mobile network devices on trains, light
rail and busses, as well as passenger accommodation technology in a variety of mobile
scenarios. The 6KM Mobile Ethernet Switch has the appropriate agency approvals,
including EN50155 and EN50121-4 Railway Applications Standards, IEC61373 for
shock and vibration, NEMA TS-2 for transportation systems outdoors, and DNV
certification for shipboard and other marine applications. Additional certifications
include third-party UL testing for safety, NEBS L3 compliance, and IEC 61850 & IEEE
1613 for power utilities.
The 6KM’s sealed metal case serves as a heat sink, enabling it to operate in the
harshest mobile environments and achieves high EMI noise immunity. The 6KM is
available with optional Conformal Coating for moisture resistance and is rated IP52 for
protection against dust and dirt. The 6KM can be configured with the user’s choice of
power input, including DC at 12V, 24V, 48V, 110V, 125V, 250VDC, and Dual-Source
for each, as well as universal AC.
