The 6KQ managed switches also provide PoE options via power –

inside PoE modules on one of A, B or C slots and allows the users to select a wide option 

of combo PoE modules to support 802.3af pd devices. See details for PoE modules in sec 

5.2.10. The Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) is fully compatible with Powered Devices 

(PD)(e.g wireless access points, IP phones) that comply with the IEEE 802.3af PoE 

standard. The PoE switch ports have an auto-sensing algorithm, so that they provide 

power only to 802.3af, PoE end devices.  PoE is managed by a multi-stage handshake 

to protect equipment from damage and to manage power budgets .The PoE ports 

will discontinue supplying power when the PoE powered devices are disconnected.  This 

feature supports the 802.3af PoE PSE standard for over-current protection, under-current 

detection, and fault protection.  

High performance features include non-blocking unicast traffic speed on all ports and 

802.1p QoS Traffic Prioritization. Magnum 6KQ switches are “plug-and-play” and are 

designed for use in connecting edge devices such as PLCs, IEDs and PoE video cameras 

with upstream switches and routers where a mix of bursty data traffic and priority 

streaming traffic 

for video 

surveillance and 

cell-tower 

applications are 

present.   Magnum 6KQ Field Switches are provided with LAN management software 

including SNMP, Tag- and Port-based VLANs, IGMP-L2 and IGMP Snooping, and Port 

Security with control via GUI and command line interface (CLI).  For high availability 

LANs using ring topologies, Spanning Tree Protocol, RSTP, Link-Loss-Learn and S-

Ring are available. Dual-Homing is a software configuration feature. See the Managed 

Networks Software (MNS-6K) and S-Ring datasheets for additional details on the 

comprehensive set of software programs and options. 

 

 

Magnum 6KQ Managed Field Switches have heavy-duty aluminum 

cases and are readily available with standard Industrial grade 24VDC power. Alternative 

internal DC power options are available.  DC power input types may be 24V, 48V, 125V, 

and dual source DC input is optional on all 6KQ’s.  (AC power is available via an 

external power supply unit, see Section 3.4 for details).
