Inspecting the Package and Product

This section applies only to PMs shipped as separate items, i.e., 6KQ PMs not

factory installed in a Magnum 6KQ PM slot.

Examine the shipping container for obvious damage prior to

installing a 6KQ PM; notify the carrier of any damage you believe occurred

during shipment or delivery. Inspect the contents of this package for any signs

of damage and ensure that the items listed below are included.

This package should contain:

1 or more 6KQ units ( or 6KQ) PMs

Installation instructions, with illustrations

Remove the 6KQ PM(s) from the shipping container. Be sure to keep

the shipping container should you need to ship any of the PMs separately at a

later date. In the event there are items missing or damaged, contact your

supplier. If you need to return the unit, use the original shipping container if

possible. Refer to Chapter 5 for specific return procedures.

6KPM Module Description

An important feature of the Magnum 6KQ is the use of Port Modules for

flexible mixed-media connectivity to RJ-45 and fiber media. Since the Magnum

6KQ Switches have dual-speed capability for copper ports, the 1, 2, 3, or 4-port

interfaces are designed to support all standard Ethernet media types at 10 or 100

or 1000Mps speed. Each 6KQ PM provides a wide selection of connecting

Ethernet media segments with all similar or combo connector types.
