Inspect the contents of this package for any signs of damage and ensure that the items listed below are included. This package should contain: Magnum 6K16V Managed Fiber Switch, base unit (configured with user-selected port module options installed) AC Power Cord (U.S. and other 115 VAC only)
Designed for use in transportation and traffic control systems, power utilities, industrial factory-floor jobs, and video surveillance systems with segments requiring Gigabit backbone interconnections, the Magnum 6K16V is easy to install and operate. The next generation of industrial applications will need advanced managed network software, operation at extended temperatures, fiber ports modularity, support for self- healing ring structures, and gigabit backbone configurability.
The 100Mb fiber eight-port modules for the Magnum 6K16V’s normally are set (factory default) to operate in full-duplex mode for best fiber distance and performance. Using the 6K16V’s MNS software, the user may select full- or half-duplex mode per-port through set-up of the software (See Magnum 6K16V MNS Software Manual) for the flexibility to adapt to any FDX or HDX type of Fast Ethernet devices).
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. Using the 6K16V’s MNS software, the user may disable auto-negotiation and fix the desired operation of each RJ-45 port. MNS Software set-up may select 10Mb or 100Mb speed and full- or half-duplex mode per-port as per user requirement.

Magnum 6K16V Managed Fiber Switch available as four 10/100 switched RJ-45 copper ports and two 100Mb switched multi- mode fiber ST, SC or single mode SC or Long Reach SC ports. For ports numbering, ports 1,3,5,7 are copper, ports 2 and 6 are fiber, ports 4 and 8 are not present.
The default setup on the 10Mb fiber module is half-duplex, which allows the Magnum 6K16V Switch to connect to any 10Mb hub or media converter or almost any other device with a 10Mb fiber Ethernet port. The default setting of the 100Mb module is full duplex.
Quality of Service means providing consistent predictable data delivery to users from datagram paths that go all across a network. As a LAN device, the Magnum 6K16V can do its part to prevent any QOS degradation while it is handling Ethernet traffic through its ports and buffers.
Magnum 6K16V Managed Fiber Switch load is greatest. When the Magnum 6K16V Switch detects that its free buffer queue space is low, the Switch sends industry standard (full-duplex only) PAUSE packets out to the devices sending packets to cause “flow control”. This tells the sending devices to temporarily stop sending traffic, which allows a traffic catch-up to occur without dropping packets.
Features and Benefits Managed switching for high performance Ethernet LANs Magnum 6K16V Switches provide non-blocking (all ports can run at full speed at once) performance with standard Managed Networks Software (MNS-6K) included. They are typically used in LAN traffic centers with 16 100Mb or 8+2 Gigabit ports for backbone connections, where managed network services are desired.
6K16V Switches enables them to inter-connect a series of subnets (one subnet per 6K16V Switch port) in a LAN traffic center. The subnet connections may be via fiber or twisted pair cabling, 100Mbps or 10 Mbps speed, and full-or half- duplex.

The 6K16V has no fans, so it is silent when in operation. Internal electronics use the case as a heat sink, so the unit may normally be quite warm to the touch.
Connecting Fiber Optic ST-type, “twist-lock” The following procedure applies to installations using a PM with ST-type fiber connectors. This procedure applies to ports using a 6K16V module, MST-type port. Before connecting the fiber optic cable, remove the protective dust caps from the tips of the connectors on the PM.
3.2.4 Connecting Twisted Pair (RJ-45,CAT3, CAT5, Unshielded or Shielded) The RJ-45 ports of the Magnum 6K16V can be connected to the following two media types: 100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T. CAT 5 cables should be used when making 100BASE-TX connections. When the ports are used as 10BASE-T ports, CAT 3 may be used.
To install the 6K16V with the DIN-Rail brackets and latches attached to it, hold the 6K16V in the vertical position with the bottom out, and with the top moved in toward the DIN-Rail. Position the latches over the top of the DIN-Rail. Then, snap the latches...
Once the bottom of the 6K16V is rotated out, the DIN-Rail latch is not engaged and the 6K16V can be moved up and out, free of the DIN-Rail mounting.. The picture below is a front / right-side view of a DIN-Rail mounted 6K16V. It shows vertical mounting of Magnum 6K16V on a DIN-Rail track for proper convection cooling of the unit.
Magnum 6K16V Managed Fiber Switch Note that the back of the 6K16V unit is held out from the panel or wall behind it, creating a rear space of about ¼ inch or 1cm. This allows air circulation and cooling of the rear part of the case.

Power supply options are available to suit the 6K16V Switches to special high- availability communications and/or heavy industrial-grade applications, including: * -48VDC, 24VDC and 125VDC with single DC input, * -48VDC, 24VDC and 125VDC with dual-source DC input, See the Appendices of this manual for more details.
Magnum 6K16V Managed Fiber Switch 6K16V Port Module (6KPM) Installation Note: the modules used in the 6K16V vertical mount unit are similar to those used in rack-mount 6K units, except that the top LEDs are positioned for front viewing for the vertical-mount 6K16V model. The modules have the letter”V” in the model numbers, but otherwise are the same.

If the device at the other end is not an auto-negotiating device, the 6K16V’s RJ-45 ports will try to detect its idle signal to determine 10 or 100 speed, and will default to half- duplex at that speed per the IEEE standard.
The transmitting device is commanded to stop transmitting into the 6K16V Switch port for sufficient time to let the Switch reduce the buffer space used. When the available free- buffer queue increases, the Switch will send a “RESUME"...
Magnum 6K16V Switches have dual-speed capability for copper ports, the 6 or 8-port interfaces are designed to support all standard Ethernet media types at 10 or 100Mps speed. Each 6K16V PM provides six or eight ports for connecting Ethernet segments with its individual connector type and media.
