    Magnum DS8016-B: module that bridges the two traffic domains, filtering and selectively forwarding packets between the 100Mb and the 10Mb domains. Stacks up to two DS8016- A units. One DS8016-B unit stack supports all ports at 100Mb or 10Mb communicating with each other. The internal switch has 2Mb dynamic store- and-forward packet buffers and 8K node addresses.

    10 Mb and the 100Mb traffic domains. This enables all users on a DS8016-B or -R hub or a DS8016 stack, whether 100Mb or 10Mb, to talk to each other. The internal switch of the DS8016’s filters and selectively forwards packets between the 10Mb and the 100Mb domains, maintaining peak performance in each domain unaffected by local traffic in the other domain.

    The DS8016-R operates stand-alone, i.e., it is a non-stackable model. In addition, the MII port in the rear of other DS8016 models is not present for the DS8016-R. Normally the DS8016-R is quipped with an optional internal 48VDC power supply (See Appendix A).

    DS8016-A or -E units (no bridge inside) from the outside. The “BR” LED on the front will light up when power is applied to indicate that a DS8016 is a -B (bridge inside) model. (The “BR” LED will be off if the unit is a Model DS8016-A or -E). The DS8016-B models cannot be stacked together, as their internal bridges would not be able to function properly when more than one is present.

    The DS8016-B’s and DS8016-R’s bridge module is implemented as a daughter board. DS8016 units have an LED on the front labeled BR that will be ON when the module is installed internally. Power up any DS8016 unit, and if the BR LED is ON, it is a Magnum DS8016-B or DS8016-R unit.

    Supports 10 or 100Mb network connections on each of sixteen RJ-45 ports Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed 10 / 100 hubs combine two logical hubs . . . one at 10Mb and one at 100Mb . . . in one physical box supporting two traffic domains. Each port can operate at either 10 or 100Mb, independently of the other ports.

    DS8016 dual-speed port, and will automatically operate at the higher speed. The dual-speed ports on the DS8016-B can be used for adding 100Mb users or for accommodating existing high performance users. The 100Mb traffic does not use the bandwidth of the 10Mb domain, so overall performance of the network is improved.
  • Page 21 100Mb ports are similarly together on a separate 100Mb traffic domain. When one DS8016-B unit with a bridge inside is present in a stack, its bridge will support all of the ports in the stack and enable network traffic to move between the two stacked domains.

    Locate an AC receptacle that is within six feet (2 meters) of the intended Magnum DS8016 site. The rugged metal case of the Magnum DS8016 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.

    3.1.2 Rack-Mounting Installation of a Magnum DS8016 Stackable Hub in a 19” rack is a simple procedure. The units are 1U (1.75”) high, including the rubber feet underneath. When properly installed, the front-mounted LED status indicators should be in plain view and easy to read.
  • Page 25: Connecting Ethernet Media

    (e.g. use of power strips)." Connecting Ethernet Media The Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed Stackable Hubs 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.
  • Page 26: Connecting Twisted Pair

    MII Transceivers may be attached here. Since there are no industry standards for these, interoperability of user-selected MII transceivers that may be attached to a DS8016’s MII port cannot be assured. Use of the MII port is not normally recommended accordingly.
  • Page 27 3.2.3a. Here, an integrator wishes to cascade the 100Mbps collision domains of two Magnum DS8016 Hubs (each having a PDV of 80 BT) for use with standard 100m Category 5 user cable segments (i.e. from computer to hub) and needs to know how long the inter- repeater Category 5 cable segment, used to cascade the hubs, can be.
  • Page 28 100m hub-to-user cable segments. It is also possible to cascade a group of up to nine Magnum DS8016 s (serving up to 56 users with full-length 100m cables to each) by using short inter-repeater cable segments.
  • Page 29: Connections To Nics Which Support Auto-Negotiation

    This additional cascading level and cable length is due to the relatively shorter bit time (80 BT actually measured, for front-port-to-port) delay of the Magnum DS8016 vs. the industry standard delay of 92 BT for Class II repeaters. The installation flexibility and network growth potential is accordingly better with Magnum DS8016 s than with hubs that merely meet the standard.
  • Page 30: Operation

    Dual-Speed and Domain-Switched Functionality The Magnum DS8016-A handles the two different traffic domains separately (unless it is stacked with a DS8016-B), and the DS8016-E has only the 100Mb domain. Alternatively, the domain-switched DS8016-B provides switched (bridged) connectivity between the Ethernet (10Mb/s) and Fast Ethernet (100Mb/s) domains. It joins the two network domains for unified operation, and filters/ forwards packets in both directions to maximize bandwidth utilization and performance.
  • Page 31 The Magnum DS8016-B bridge module is a state machine design which has a total address table capacity of 8K addresses. With a large address table, a Magnum DS8016 can serve the needs of a medium-sized to large network. Table 4.1 shows what filter / forward action the Magnum DS8016-B will take in each packet-processing situation, and when a new node address will be added to the internal Address Table.
  • Page 32 By selectively forwarding packets from each domain to the other domain based on its switching (bridging) logic, the domain-switched Magnum DS8016-B increases the available bandwidth for the users on both sides of the network. As shown in Figure 4.1, it keeps the local traffic on each side contained, preventing unnecessary packets and bad packets from traveling to the other domain and using up bandwidth needlessly there.

    100Mb/s, When it is OFF, it is at 10Mb/s. If a DS8016 port is connected to a non-negotiating device, it will default to 10Mb speed. Since Magnum DS8016s are hubs, they always operate in the shared or half-duplex mode on all ports.

    Use port “1” (or ports 2 thru 16) for straight-through twisted pair cabling from the DS8016 port to a user device, or the “1X” port for cross-over or up-link segment connections from the first DS8016 port to a repeater or hub or switch. Verify proper port connection by noting the port’s LINK/RX status, which is illuminated when a proper link...
