2.2 Product Description - Magnum 6K16-Series (6K16/6K16V)
Magnum 6K16-Series Managed Switches, available as Magnum 6K16 and
6K16V models, and equipped with 16 modular ports, is specially designed to focus on
two different aspects of Ethernet markets to meet their needs and requirements. 6K16-
Series managed switches provide modularity of fiber and copper ports, a mix and
combination of 10Mb, 100Mb and Gigabit speed ports, with comprehensive management
software in a compact industrial-grade package. Setting a new standard for Industrial and
Carrier Class applications, heavy duty Ethernet Switch jobs are readily accommodated
with an extended temperature rating of -40˚C to 60˚C by the UL Component Parts
method, or -50˚C to 95˚C by the IEC 60068 Type Test method. With options such as all
popular DC power input types, worldwide AC power and DIN-Rail mounting, the
hardened Magnum 6K16-Series is a “multi-purpose” Industrial Ethernet Switch.
The large family of port modules offer the choice of all fiber media (all
connector types, multi- and single-mode) and 10/100 Mb auto-negotiating RJ-45 ports.
Standard GBIC ports can be configured for a variety of Gigabit cabling types and
distances.
The 6K16- Series managed switches also provides PoE option via power –
inside PoE modules on one of A or B slot 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), and are 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, and
support the 802.3af PoE PSE standard for over-current protection, under-current
detection, and fault protection.
High performance features include non-blocking speed on all ports and 802.1p QoS
Traffic Prioritization. Magnum 6K16-Series switches are “plug-and-play” ready for use
as backbone switches where a mix of bursty data traffic and priority streaming traffic for
VoIP and audio/video “Triple Play” applications are present.
Magnum 6K16-Series Fiber Switches are provided with LAN management
software including SNMP, Tag- and Port-based VLANs, IGMP Snooping and Port
