Before installing the equipment, it is necessary to take the 
following precautions: 

1.) 

If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack 

assembly, the environmental temperature around the equipment 
must be less than or equal to 50

0

C. 

2.) 

If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack 

assembly, adequate air flow must be maintained for proper and 
safe operation. 

3.) 

If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack 

system, placement of the equipment must not overload or load 
unevenly the rack system. 

4.) 

If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack 

assembly, verify the equipment’s power requirements to prevent 
overloading of the building/s electrical circuits. 

If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack 

assembly verify that the equipment has a reliable and 
uncompromised earthing path.

 

This section describes installation of the Magnum 6K32 Switches, as well as 

connection of the various Ethernet media types. 

 

The location of a Magnum 6K32 Switch is dependent on the physical layout of 

the network.  Typically the Switch is placed in a central wiring location where groups of 

network devices need to be connected in order to communicate with each other. These 

Switches are typically rack mounted in a wiring closet see Section 3.3.2 below), but 

because they have rubber feet they can also be installed on a shelf or table top unit. The 

compact size allows it to be easily placed in an office or lab area, and it can also be either 

shelf of wall-mounted (see Section 3.3.1 below).  

 

Locate an AC receptacle that is within six feet 

(2 meters) of the intended Magnum 6K32 site.  The 

rugged metal case of the Magnum 6K32 will normally 

protect it from accidental damage in a lab or workplace 

setting.  Maintain an open view of the front to visually 

monitor the status LEDs.  Keep an open area around the 

unit so that cooling can occur from the small fan on the 

left side, while the unit is in operation. See figure below. 

                              

 

 

The Magnum 6K32 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
