Magnum 6K32F/FR/FC/FRC Managed Switch Installation and User Guide (07/10)
3.2
Connecting Ethernet Media
The Magnum 6K32F Series Switches are specifically designed to support all
standard Ethernet media types within a single Switch unit. This is accomplished by
using a family of different port Modules which can be individually selected and
configured per-port. See Section 2.4 for a description of the PMs.
The various media types supported along with the corresponding IEEE 802.3 and 802.3u
standards and connector types are as follows:
IEEE Standard
Fiber:
1000BASE-FX
100BASE-FX

Connecting Fiber Optic ST-type, "twist-lock"
The following procedure applies to installations using a PM with ST-type fiber
connectors. This procedure applies to ports using a 6K32F Series module, MST-
type port.
1.
Before connecting the fiber optic cable, remove the protective dust caps from the
tips of the connectors on the PM. Save these dust caps for future use.
2.
Wipe clean the ends of the dual connectors with a soft cloth or lint-free lens tissue
dampened in alcohol. Make certain the connectors are clean before connecting.
Note:
bands at regular intervals; you must use the color-coded strand on the
associated ports at each end of the fiber optic segment.
3.
Connect the Transmit (TX) port (light colored post) on the Magnum PM to the
Receive (RX) port of the remote device. Begin with the color-coded strand of
the cable for this first TX-to-RX connection.
4.
Connect the Receive (RX) port (dark colored post on the PM) to the Transmit
