on the port. A fiber cable must be connected into a SFF port and the Link (LK) indicator 

for that port must be ON (indicating there is a powered-up device at the other end of the 

cable) in order for a LK LED to provide valid indications of operating conditions on that 

port.

The 6KQ’s 4-port Copper module, model 6K4-RJ45, provides four 10/100Mb switched 

RJ-45 ports. The 10/100Mb 

switched ports normally (as a 

default setting) are independently 

N-way auto-negotiating and auto-

crossover (MDIX) for operation at 10 or 100Mb speed in full- or half-duplex mode.  (i.e., 

each independently selects a mode and speed to match the device at the other end of the 

twisted pair cable).  

 

 (See Section 4.3 for auto-negotiation and MDIX details).  

On the model 6KQ-RJ45 module, there are four LEDs for each port, two 

integrated into the connector, and two below the connector.  The LK (Link) LED 

indicates “ready for operation” on that port when lit. The blinking ACT (Activity) LED 

indicates receiving Activity on that port when lit. The 10/100 LED indicates operation at 

100Mb speed when ON and at 10 Mb speed when OFF (when auto-negotiation is not 

disabled). The FDX/HDX LED is ON to indicate full-duplex operation and OFF to 

indicate the half-duplex mode. A twisted pair cable must be connected into an RJ-45 port 

and the Link (LK) indicator for that port must be ON (indicating there is a powered-up 

device at the other end of the cable) in order for a LK LED to provide valid indications 

of operating conditions on that port.  

Using the 6KQ (MNS-6K) management software, the user may disable auto-

negotiation and fix the desired operation of each RJ-45 port. The user may select 10Mb 

or 100Mb speed and full- or half-duplex mode per-port as per user requirements. (See 

Magnum MNS-6K Software Manual for details info.). 

 

The PoE (Power-over-Ethernet) RJ-45 ports are similar to regular RJ-45 ports, 

except they have the capability of providing power on each port to power up the PD 

devices, per the IEEE802.3af PoE standard. The power-pass-through PoE modules are
