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 50

0

C. 

2.) 

If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack 

assembly, adequate air flow 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 overload or load 
unevenly 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.

 

This section describes installation of the Magnum 6K16-Series Switches, as 

well as connection of the various Ethernet media types. 

 

For vertical panel mounting and wall mounting, see Section 3.4. 

 

For vertical DIN-Rail mounting, see Section 3.3. 

 

For DC power options, see Appendix B.  For Dual Source, see Appendix C. 

 

For AC power input, locate an AC receptacle that is within six feet (2 meters) 

of the intended Magnum 6K16-Series site.  The rugged metal case of the Magnum 6K16-

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 convection while the unit is in 

operation. The 6K16-Series has no fans, so it is silent when in operation.  Internal 

electronics use the case as a heat sink, so the unit may normally be quite warm to the 

touch. 

                               

 

 

The Magnum 6K16-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, 802.3D, 802.3u, 802.3AB and 802.3z standards and connector types are 
as follows:
