Internal jumper settings (See Section 3.4) allow technicians to over-ride the auto-negotiation feature and to manually set each port at full-duplex or half-duplex. One port on each RJ-45 quad-port module is equipped with a Media Dependent Interface- Crossover (MDI-X) push-button switch to simplify cascaded or up-link connections. -

The fiber port is fixed at 100Mbps speed at all times, and has LEDs that indicate status the same way as described for the Fiber Quad-port modules in Section 2.2.2 above. 2.2.6 Frame Buffering and Latency The Magnum Quad-Series are store-and-forward switches. - Page 17 Magnum Quad-Series Fiber Switches Magnum Quad-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 Quad-Series Switches are constantly adapting internally to provide maximum network performance with the least dropped packets.
-
Page 18: Features And Benefits
Quad-port modules are available with 100Mb mm ST, SC, VF-45, MTRJ single-mode SC, and 10 Mb ST-type connectors. The configuration of the fiber ports, in the factory or in the field, allows the Quad-Series Switches to adapt to mixed and changing fiber types in any application. -
Page 19: Applications
The Dual-Speed characteristic of the Quad-Series Switches enables them to inter-connect a series of subnets (one subnet per Q-Series Switch) in a LAN traffic center. - Page 20 QPMs with multi-mode or single-mode fiber types are available. This requirement for connecting local devices over twisted pair cabling is handled by the Magnum QS5108 using a 4-port RJ-45 Quad-Port Module. The QPM provides a switched port for two local high speed servers, another for the router, another for the users connecting into a 16-port dual-speed hub such as the Magnum DS8016.
- Page 21 If the probable growth of the central Switch is towards more local high speed servers and users, then one quad-port fiber QPM is selected to provide 4 of the required fiber ports, and two “combo 3@RJ-45 + 1@fiber” QPMs are configured for the other 2 fiber ports plus 6 of the switched copper ports.

The module has a manual Up-link push-button, located on the front panel next to 10/100Mb RJ-45 Quad-port # 1 which it controls. It enables the port’s cable to either connect to a user station node (push in) or to be cascaded (push out) to a 10/100Mb repeater or switching hub in the network. - Page 39 If the device at the other end is not an auto-negotiating device, the Quad-Switch’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.
