5.2.12a  GBPM-2OTX (Two Gigabit option) 
 

The Magnum 6K32-Series 

offered a wide selection of Gigabit 

speed with multiple choice of copper 

or Fiber or mix for the modular slot 

via GBPM-2OTX (2 x Giga 

module). While up to two Gigabit 

modules (max.) can be configured in 

the modular slot for GBPM-2OTX. 

 

The Dual Gigabit port option for the modular slot provides a wide option of 

choice for various Gigabit transceivers covering a long range of distance. The GBPM-

2OTX also meets the requirement for those applications where a managed Gigabit media 

converter is required. The two Gigabit slot can be filled with copper/Fiber or mix as per 

the application. 

The 6K32-Series Gigabit Modules provide a GBIC opening for insertion of 

industry-standard GBICs to provide Gigabit (Gb) transceivers media flexibility. GBIC 

models are available for both multi-mode (550m) and single-mode (10, 25, 40, 70, 120) 

km fiber options, and Gigabit copper as well, with new models appearing often. 

Each port has a Full and Half Duplex (F/H) Activity, (ACT) LED indicating 

packets being received and a Link (LK) LED indicating proper connectivity with the 

remote device when lit. 

 

5.2.12b  GBIC-LXSC Gigabit fiber (1000Mb), multi-mode SC Connector 
 

The Magnum GBIC-LXSC is a single-mode Gigabit fiber connector equipped 

with SC type connectors and can be easily snapped in and out. The Gigabit fiber ports are 

most popular as server-to-switch and switch-to-switch applications. It supports cable 

distances up to the IEEE 802.3z standard 1000Mbps distance limits, i.e., 10, 25, 40, 70 or 

120Km at full duplex, and depend upon the Gigabit modules used.
