Magnum 6K32F/FR/FC/FRC Managed Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08) 

The optional 23” brackets and the ETSI (21”) brackets each come as a pair in a 

package, along with the necessary screws for attaching the brackets to the sides of the 

Magnum Switch unit.  They must be ordered as separate line items. 

The optional Reverse Magnum 6K32FR/FRC Model has all of the cabling 

(Ethernet cabling, power cabling and console port cabling) connectors in the rear, and the 

status LEDs in the front.  The status LEDs that are co-incident with the ports are still 

present, and a second or dual set of LEDs are used for status visibility in the front of the 

unit, showing the same data.   

There are three options of brackets available to mount in the standard 19” 

frame, 23” frame, or ETSI (21”) frame. The 19” brackets are included with each unit, the 

other two may be purchased as separate options.   

 

Important 

With each bracket type, there are three different mounting options as shown in Fig. 3.3.2.  

The case of the Magnum 6K32F has mounting holes prepared for each of the mounting 

arrangements. Users may choose the mounting arrangement most 

suitable for their installation. 

Note:  
For 
adequate 
convection 
cooling, 
always 
install a 
6K32FRC 
switch with 
a minimum 
of 1/2U 
(0.875”) air 
space above 
and below.  

Powering the Magnum 6K32F Series Managed Switch 

 

The Magnum 6K32F Series Switches incorporate an internal universal power 

supply and have a recessed male IEC connector for the AC power cord at the left-rear.  A 

manual power ON-OFF switch is adjacent. A six-foot 115 VAC 60 Hz standard power 

cord is supplied with each unit shipped within the United States and Canada.         

 

The auto-ranging power supply supports installation environments where the 

AC voltage is from 90 to 260 volts with a power input frequency between 47 and 63 Hz.
