ES42 Series Edge Switches 
 Installation and User Guide (05/05)  
 
* Note:  The use of either multi-mode or single-mode fiber to operate at 100Mbps speed 
over long distances (i.e., over approx. 400 meters) can be achieved 
only
 if the following 
factors are both applied: 
• 
The 100Mb fiber segment must operate in full-duplex (FDX) mode, and 
• 
The worst-case OPB of the fiber link must be greater than the fiber cable’s 
passive Attenuation. 
(Attenuation = Cable loss + LED aging loss + Insertion loss + safety factor) 
 
3.8.6 
Connections to NICs which support Auto-Negotiation, RJ-45 ports 
 
The copper ports of Magnum ES42-Sereis Edge Switches will function properly 
with NICs (Network Interface Cards) which support Auto-Negotiation, and the Fast Link 
Pulse (FLP) coding for the 100BASE-TX signaling system.  When connecting a NIC to the 
ES42-Series, it may be necessary to reload the NIC drivers on the user device if the NIC 
has been communicating with a protocol other than 100BASE-TX (such as 10BASE-T).  
When 100Mb operation is agreed and in use, the 10/100 LED is illuminated steady ON and  
is OFF, if 10 Mbps traffic.
