Industry-standard IEEE 802.1p QOS prioritization is included, providing high performance switching services for both “smooth” streaming and “bursty” data traffic. The Magnum 6K25e has up to 25 ports capacity, all of which may be configured as fiber ports, but still offers a space-saving rack-mount chassis that is only 1U (1.70in.
Page 14
Fiber Switches are easy to install and use. Addresses of attached nodes are automatically learned, maintained and aged out, adapting the switching services to network changes. LEDs provide status information on each port. The Magnum 6K25e provides high performance plug-and-play hardware operation, 802.1p packet prioritization in hardware, and industry-standard managed networks software functionality, all in convenient 1U rack-mount packages.
GBICs. The port types configurable using the 4 slots allows the 6K25e to efficiently serve a large variety of applications, especially using fiber media. The Magnum 6K25e port modules are normally factory installed, but may be changed or added in the field.
Using the 6K25e’s MNS software, the user may select full- or half-duplex mode per-port through set-up of the software (See Magnum 6K25e MNS Software Manual) for the flexibility to adapt to any FDX or HDX type of Fast Ethernet devices).
Magnum 6K25e Gigabit Fiber Switch Installation and User Guide (10/07) eliminate the need of cross-over cable. On the model 6K8-RJ45 module, there are four LEDs for each port, two in the connector and two separate. The LK (Link) LED indicates “ready for operation” on that port when lit.
Magnum 6K25e Gigabit Fiber Switch Installation and User Guide (10/07) ordering information Sec.1.2. for all the various PI6K PoE modules option. The LEDs on 6KP8-RJ45- PoE module are slightly different compared to regular (non-PoE) RJ-45 modules as shown in Fig 2. When the PoE port is in use, the PoE LED is ON when connected properly to a 803.af compliant PD device on that port.
Magnum 6K25e Gigabit Fiber Switch Installation and User Guide (10/07) (MDIX) feature to eliminate the use of cross-over cable, and the two fiber ports operate at 100Mbps full-duplex (default). User mode control per port through the MNS software is also the same.
3, 4. 7, 8 are not present. The default setup on the 10Mb fiber module is half-duplex, which allows the Magnum 6K25e Switch to connect to any 10Mb hub or media converter or almost any other device with a 10Mb fiber Ethernet port. User mode control per port through the MNS software is the same as the other 6K25e modules.
When the Magnum 6K25e 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”.
Managed Network Software (MNS-6K ) for Magnum 6K25e-Series Magnum 6K25e’s come with Rel3.7 licensed MNS-6K software, which allows the user to configure the Magnum 6K25e as a Managed Switch and implements security features and other software enabled features. (NOTE: Magnum 625e managed switch will work with Rel 3.7 firmware or higher...
Modular design for port flexibility, in a 1U space-saving rack-mount package The 1U Magnum 6K25e chassis has 4 slots for port configurations. Family of 4, 6 or 8 port modules allow the user to select the desired mix of port types & speeds. The port modules are normally factory installed and tested, but may be changed in the field.
Page 24
RJ-45 ports are MDI/MDIX supported The RJ-45 modules are equipped with MDI/MDIX capability to eliminate the use of cross-over cable. The Auto-MDIX capability allow the Magnum 6K25e to cascade any Hub, switches or media converters with normal straight cable. SFP Gigabit module being supported on Slot D Due to design constrains, Slot D will be populated With either Dual SFP Giga or Dual RJ-45 Gigabit, or combo of both.

The Magnum 625e Managed Switch equipped with copper and optional dual Gigabit fiber ports on modular slots provide an economical and seamless solution to the requirements. The user-configurable Magnum 6K25e provides an extra boost to the network requirements by providing copper/fiber media along with the higher bandwidth 10/ 1 00 support of 10/100 and 1000Mb.
The versatile mechanical design with rack mounting capability and AC/DC option will be an additional feature to take care of temperature and power option issue. Equipped with IGMP-L2 mode enhanced features allow the Magnum 6K25e to meet the fastest growing application of video monitoring or video surveillance demand of industry and provide an economical and effective solution to meet that expectation.
Locate an AC receptacle that is within six feet (2 meters) of the intended Magnum 6K25e site. The rugged metal case of the Magnum 6K25e 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.
3.2.4 Connecting Twisted Pair (RJ-45,CAT3, CAT5, Unshielded or Shielded) The RJ-45 ports of the Magnum 6K25e 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.
3.2.5 Connecting Twisted Pair (CAT5E or better, Unshielded or Shielded) The RJ-45 Gigabit ports of the Magnum 6K25e can be connected to the media types, 1000BASE-T or CAT 5E or better 100-ohm UTP or shielded twisted pair (STP) balanced cable. The CAT 5E or better 100-ohm UTP or shielded twisted pair (STP) balanced cable is recommended to use when making 1000BASE-TX connections.

When this option is present, the terminal block for Alarm Contacts is part of the Power Input panel in the Magnum 6K25e case. The AC or DC power input connection is in the same panel. A manual On-Off Switch for power to the unit is not available on 6K25e units with the Alarm Contacts option, as these two features occupy the same space in the case.
Installation and User Guide (10/07) 6K25e Port Module (6KPM) Installation The Magnum 6K25e Switches are normally received from the factory with all required 6KPM modules installed. There may be situations where 6KPM cards need to be added or replaced. In cases where additional 6KPM cards are needed, the faceplate for an available front-mounted slot must be removed.

Switching Functionality A Magnum 6K25e provides switched connectivity at Ethernet wire-speed among all of its ports. The Magnum 6K25e supports10/100Mbs for copper media and 10 or 100Mb separate traffic domains for fiber ports to maximize bandwidth utilization and network performance. All ports can communicate to all other ports in a Magnum 6K25e, but local traffic on a port will not consume any of the bandwidth on any other port.
Address Learning All Magnum 6K25e units have address table capacities of 4K node addresses suitable for use in larger networks. They are self-learning, so as nodes are added, removed or moved from one segment to another, the 6K25e Switch automatically keeps up with node locations.
MNS software port settings and can check the port status of each port after the change. When Magnum 6K25e RJ-45 copper ports are set for auto-negotiation and are connected to another auto-negotiating device, there are 4 different speed and F/H modes possible depending on what the other device supports.
The Path Delay Value (PDV) bit-times must account for all devices and cable lengths within that domain. For Magnum 6K25e Fast Ethernet switched ports operating at 100Mb half-duplex, the bit time delay is 50BT.
