Before installing the equipment, it is necessary to take the 
following precautions: 

1.) 

If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack 

assembly, the environmental temperature around the equipment 
must be less than or equal to 60C for 6K32F Series Switches. 

2.) 

If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack 

assembly, adequate airflow must be maintained for proper and 
safe operation. 

3.) 

If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack 

system, placement of the equipment must not load unevenly or 
overload the rack system. 

4.) 

If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack 

assembly, verify the equipment’s power requirements to prevent 
overloading of the building/s electrical circuits. 

If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack 

assembly verify that the equipment has a reliable and 
uncompromised earthing path.

24vdc, -48vdc, and 125vdc must be installed in restricted 

access locations.

CB-Circuit breaker of 10Amps should shown on top of Rack.

 

This section describes installation of the Magnum 6K32F Series Switches, as 

well as connection of the various Ethernet media types. 

 

The location of a Magnum 6K32F Switch is dependent on the physical layout 

of the network.  Typically the Switch is placed in a central wiring location where groups 

of network devices need to be connected in order to communicate with each other. These 

Switches are typically rack mounted in a wiring closet see Section 3.3.2 below), but 

because they have rubber feet they can also be installed on a shelf or table top unit. The 

compact size allows it to be easily placed in an office or lab area, and it can also be either 

shelf of wall-mounted (see Section 3.3.1 below).  

 

Locate an AC receptacle that is within six feet (2 meters) of the intended 

Magnum 6K32F site.  The rugged metal case of the Magnum 6K32F Series 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.  Keep an open area around the unit so 

that cooling can occur from the small fans (6K32F / FR) on the left side while the unit is 

in operation.
