This dynamic buffer allocation provides the capability for the maximum resources of the Magnum P62-Series unit to be applied to all traffic loads, even when the traffic activity is unbalanced across the ports. Since the traffic on an operating network is constantly varying in packet density per port and in aggregate density, the Magnum P62-Series Hardened Switches are constantly adapting internally to provide maximum network performance with the least dropped packets.
No Media Converters needed. All RJ-45 ports are auto-negotiating, support 10/100 full / half duplex The auto-negotiating RJ-45 ports on P62-Series, with 10 or 100Mb speed and full / half-duplex mode selected by Ethernet standard IEEE 802.3u...
Some local users (using RJ-45 ports) may operate at 100Mbps, and some users and utility devices may run at 10 Mbps. A Magnum P62-Series Hardened Switch serves this requirement economically and efficiently. The six full- and half-duplex switched ports make the required setup simple for collection of traffic data.

Magnum P62-Series Hardened Switches Example 2. The Magnum P62F fits very well in high temperature locations (control rooms) experiencing a need to scale its LAN quickly and cost effectively. With its half / full duplex switching capability, the P62F provides a very economical high bandwidth solution at each copper-cable user-access point.

The managed mp62 Hardened Switch is specially designed to operate in uncontrollable temperature applications and its wide variety of AC/DC options also qualify this hardened Switch to deploy in harsh applications.
Magnum P62s support DC power input for high reliability and AC power for convenience in out-of-the way locations. Locate the P62-Series unit near any AC power (or any 20-60VDC three-wire (+, GND, -) power source for DC models) that is within the range of the unit.

Connecting Ethernet Media, and Special Strain-relief feature Note – see also “Cable Strain Relief Feature, Section 3.4. The Magnum P62-Series Ethernet Switches (P62F model illustrated here) can be cabling can be used, whereas for single-mode, 9/125 microns cabling should be used. Fiber cabling supports much longer cable distances and higher bandwidth than copper wiring.
RJ-45 ports are intended for connectivity to other communication equipment such as routers or telecommunication multiplexers installed in close proximity (i.e., less than 2 meters or 6.5ft) to the (m)P62(F). It is not recommended to use these ports in substation applications to interface to field devices across distances which could produce kigh (greater than 2500V ) levels of ground potential rise (GPR) during line-to-ground fault conditions.

Magnum P62 Switch (as shown in Figure above) The DC terminal block on the Magnum P62-Series Hardened Switch is located on the left front of the unit and is equipped with three (3) screw-down lead posts. The power terminals are identified as positive (+) and negative (-), and they are floating inside the unit so that either may be grounded by the user if desired.
3.3.2 Power the P62-5V models w/Ext AC Power Supply (PSX-A) The rugged Magnum P62-5V Hardened Switch, mainly used in “outdoor” Ethernet applications at extended temperatures, also supports universal AC power input from 85-275 vac 50-60Hz through a separate Power Source unit, the PSX-A. The wide range of AC power input qualifies this product for use worldwide, in almost any temperature environment.
3.3.3 Power the P62-5V w/DC Pwr Supply (PSX-T) at 125/250 VDC The rugged Magnum P62-5V Hardened Switch also supports 125V/250 VDC power through a separate Power Source unit, the PSX-T. The wide range of AC power input qualifies this product for use worldwide, in almost any temperature environment. The 125/250 VDC power source (PSX-T) provides a rugged power supply enclosed in a metal case that also acts as a heat sink, enabling extended temperatures to be accommodated.
Cable Strain Relief Feature on all P62-Series models The Magnum P62-Series Hardened Switches are designed to use in extended temperature environments, which qualifying them to be used in roadside traffic data collection and control stations, above-the-ceiling locations in commercial buildings, etc. They are usually mounted vertically so that the cables hang out the bottom.

/ low temperatures. In order to mount the P62-Series on a flat panel or wall, see Section 3.1.2 above. In order to mount the P62-Series on a DIN-RAIL track, order the optional bracket Model # DIN-RAIL-P62 and use the DIN-Rail mounting bracket procedure as illustrated in the picture below.
100Mbps Ethernet, and can communicate with 10Mb domain too. All Magnum P62 units are plug-and-play devices. There is no software configuration to be done at installation or for maintenance. The Half / full duplex mode for the RJ-45 switched RJ- 45 ports is user dependent and changes (by auto-negotiation) to full or half duplex as the unit attached with these ports.
The Magnum P62-Series units have an address table capacity of 4K node addresses, and are suitable for use in large networks. They are self-learning, so that as nodes are added or removed or moved from one segment to another, the P62-Series automatically keeps up with node locations.
