Connecting Twisted Pair (CAT5E or better, Unshielded or
Shielded)
The RJ-45 Gigabit ports of the Magnum 6K16-Series can be connected to the
media types, 1000BASE-T or CAT 5E or better 100-ohm UTP or shielded twisted pair
(STP) balanced cable. The CAT 5E or better 100-ohm UTP or shielded twisted pair
(STP) balanced cable is recommended to use when making 1000BASE-TX connections.
In either case, the max distance for unshielded twisted pair cabling is 100 meters (328 ft).

NOTE : It is recommended that high quality CAT. 5E cables (which work for both 100
Mb and 1000Mb) be used whenever possible in order to provide flexibility in a

mixed-speed network.
The following procedure describes how to connect a 1000BASE-T twisted pair segment
to the RJ-45 port. The procedure is the same for both unshielded and shielded twisted
pair cables.
1. 1000Base-T connections require that all four pairs or wires be connected. Insert
either end of the cable with an RJ-45 plug into the RJ-45 connector of the port.
Note that, even though the connector is shielded, either unshielded or shielded
cables and wiring may be used.

Connecting Gigabit Media Using GBICs
The Gigabit ports accept industry-standard GBICs for user selection of the
gigabit media type desired. A selection of fiber and copper GBICs are available.

DIN-Rail Mounting (Magnum
6K16V)
The Magnum 6K16V is designed for use in
a “factory floor” industrial environment. It is
available with optional DIN-Rail brackets to mount it
securely in a metal factory floor enclosure,
maintained vertically for proper convection cooling of
the unit. The Magnum 6K16V requires two DIN-Rail
mounting clips or latches for secure mounting, and
these may be ordered as Model # DIN-RAIL-VRM.
