The Magnum 6K32T 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 and 802.3u standards and connector types are as follows:

Connecting Fiber Optic  ST-type, “twist-lock” 

  

 

The following procedure applies to installations using a PM with ST-type fiber 
connectors. This procedure applies to ports using a 6K32T module, MST-type 
port. 

1. 

Before connecting the fiber optic cable, remove the protective dust caps from the

 

tips of the connectors on the PM.  Save these dust caps for future use. 

 
2. 

Wipe clean the ends of the dual connectors with a soft cloth or lint-free lens tissue 
dampened in alcohol.  Make certain the connectors are clean before connecting. 

bands at regular intervals; you must use the color-coded strand on the 
associated ports at each end of the fiber optic segment. 

3. 

Connect the Transmit (TX) port (light colored post) on the Magnum PM to the 

 

Receive (RX) port of the remote device.  Begin with the color-coded strand of 

 

the cable for this first TX-to-RX connection. 

4. 

Connect the Receive (RX) port (dark colored post on the PM) to the Transmit 
(TX) port of the remote device. Use the non-color coded fiber strand for this. 

5. 

The LINK LED on the front of the PM will illuminate when a proper connection 
has been established at both ends (and when power is ON in the unit). If LINK is 
not lit after the cable is connected, the normal cause is improper cable polarity.  
Swap the fiber cables at the PM connector to try to remedy this situation.
