Page 15: Frame Buffering And Latency
To minimize the possibility of dropping frames on congested ports, each Magnum Quad-Series QS5116 Switches dynamically allocates buffer space from an 8 MB memory pool, ensuring that heavily used ports receive very large buffer space for packet storage. - Page 16 Magnum Quad-Series Fiber Switches Installation and User Guide (06/03) 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: Applications
Magnum Quad-Series Fiber Switches Installation and User Guide (06/03) Applications Magnum Quad-Series Mixed-Media Switches offer high performance and flexibility, and are easily used in a variety of applications including client/server computing, performance upgrades of departmental networks, and collapsed backbone 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 19 Magnum Quad-Series Fiber Switches Installation and User Guide (06/03) Example 2 : Magnum 8-port QS5108 In another application, a Switch is needed to provide a Fast Ethernet backbone. The backbone consists of four high-speed LAN segments, each operating over 100MB full-duplex fiber lines.
- Page 20 Magnum Quad-Series Fiber Switches Installation and User Guide (06/03) Example 3: Magnum 16-port QS5116 In another situation similar to Example 2 above, a larger central Switch is needed to provide for a 6-segment 100Mb fiber Fast Ethernet backbone, and switched copper support for 4 high speed local servers.
