(MDIX) features to eliminate the use of cross-over cables.  The two fiber ports operate at 

100Mbps full-duplex (default). User mode control per port through the MNS software is 

also the same. 

On Magnum “4+2” Combo modules, there are four LED’s for each RJ-45 port, 

which indicate status as described for the 6K8-RJ45 in Section 2.2.3 above. The fiber 

port LEDs indicate status the same way as described for the SFF fiber modules in Section 

2.2.2 above.  Color-coding on the panel of the module shows which LEDs belong to 

which port. 

 

The Magnum Combo six-

port modules are also available with 

4@ MTRJ 100Mb mm SFF fiber and 

2@10Mb fiber mm ST ports, or 4@ 

RJ45 10/100 copper and 2@10Mb 

fiber mm ST ports. The    

 4@ RJ-45 + 2@ 10 Mb ST   

operation of the SFF fiber and the RJ-45 half of 

the module is as described for those port types above.  For detailed information about 

10Mb mm ST fiber half of the module, see Section 2.2.5. 

The 4-port @10Mb ST fiber modules behave the same as the 4@100Mb ST 

fiber modules except for the 10Mb speed. For port numbering, ports 1, 2, 5, 6 are present, 
ports 3, 4. 7, 8 are not present.  There is also a similar 100Mb fiber SC module. 

The default setup on the 10Mb fiber module is half-duplex, which allows the 

Magnum 6K8-Series Switch to connect to any 10Mb hub or media converter or almost 
any other device with a 10Mb fiber Ethernet port. The default setting of the 100Mb fiber 
module is full duplex. User mode-control per port through the MNS “port settings” 
software is the same as the other 6K8-Series modules.  

The fiber ports support fiber-cabling distances according to the 10BASE-FL 

and 100BASE-FX standards, i.e., 2km distance for multi-mode fiber. (Single-mode for 
up to greater distance may be available as a special order, request quote).
