A fiber cable must be connected to each 100Mb port and a proper link LK lit) must be made with the device at the other end of the cable in order for the LK LEDs to provide valid indications of operating conditions. 2.2.4 Fiber-port modules, 10 Mb fiber A L The 10Mb model FPM10-MST fiber port module is the same as the 100Mb FPM-MST, except for 10 Mb speed rather than 100Mb speed.
Magnum 4K8 Switches 2.2.6 Installation and User Guide (10/04) Frame Buffering and Latency The Magnum 4K8 are store-and-forward switches. Each frame (or packet) is loaded into the Switch’s memory and inspected before forwarding can occur. This technique ensures that all forwarded frames are of a valid length and have the correct CRC, i.e., are good packets. This eliminates the propagation of bad packets, enabling all of the available bandwidth to be used for valid information.
Magnum 4K8 Switches Installation and User Guide (10/04) Another feature implemented in Magnum 4K8 Switches is a collision-based flow-control mechanism (when operating at half-duplex only). When the Switch detects that its free buffer queue space is low, the Switch prevents more frames from entering by forcing a collision signal on all receiving half-duplex ports in order to stop incoming traffic.
Magnum 4K8 Switches 2.3 Installation and User Guide (10/04) Features and Benefits 100Mb switching services for large, high performance Ethernet LANs Magnum 4K8 Switches provide Fast Ethernet switching on all ports. They perform high speed filter/forward operations on the traffic, giving each port’s segment a full 100Mb (or 10 Mb) of bandwidth.
Magnum 4K8 Switches 2.4 Installation and User Guide (10/04) Applications Magnum 4K8 Switches offer high performance and flexibility, and are easily used in a variety of applications including client/server computing, performance upgrades of departmental networks, and collapsed backbone applications. The DualSpeed characteristic of the 4K8 Switches enables them to inter-connect a series of subnets (one subnet per 4K-Series Switch) in a LAN traffic center.

Magnum 4K8 Switches Installation and User Guide (10/04) 3.0 Installation: This section describes installation of the Magnum 4K8 Switches, as well as connection of the various Ethernet media types. 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 500C. 2.
Magnum 4K8 Switches 3.2 Installation and User Guide (10/04) Connecting Ethernet Media The Magnum 4K8 Switches are specifically designed to support all standard Ethernet media types within a single Switch unit. This is accomplished by using a family of Fiber-port Modules (FPMs) which can be individually selected and configured per-port. See Section 2.4 for a description of the FPMs. The various media types supported along with the corresponding IEEE 802.3 and 802.
Magnum 4K8 Switches 3.2.2 Installation and User Guide (10/04) Connecting Fiber Optic SC-type, "Snap-In" The following procedure applies to installations using a FPM with SC-type fiber connectors, i.e., using FPM-MSC, FPM-SSC single-mode, and FPM10-MSC. When connecting fiber media to SC connectors, simply snap on the two square male connectors into the SC female jacks of the FPM until it clicks and secures. 3.2.

Magnum 4K8 Switches 3.4 Installation and User Guide (10/04) Fiber Port Module (FPM) Installation The Magnum 4K-Series Fiber Switches are normally received from the factory with all required FPM modules installed. There may be situations where FPM cards need to be added or replaced. In cases where additional FPM cards are needed, the face plate for an available front-mounted slot must be removed. The following procedure describes this operation. 3.4.
Magnum 4K8 Switches Step 2. Installation and User Guide (10/04) Remove Chassis Cover The Magnum 4K8 chassis are combined with top and bottom part and assembled together with the help of 20 Philips head screws. There are 7 screws located on front-top of the unit and three screws each on the left and right edges. Remove these screws. Once these are removed, the top cover is easily lifted off the chassis base. When the chassis top cover has been removed, the interior of the unit is exposed.
Magnum 4K8 Switches Step 2. Installation and User Guide (10/04) Remove bottom-front Retaining Screws in any PM or Face Plates On the bottom-front of the unit, there is one retaining screw for FPM card slot. These screws are used to secure a FPM face plate in position. These screws are also used to secure the individual FPM cards, which can be subjected to significant forces from the attached cables. (See Figure 3.4.
Magnum 4K8 Switches Step 3. Installation and User Guide (10/04) Be sure the pins are precisely aligned with the holes in the header, and the FPM front panel is guided into the front slot cut-out. Then, slowly and carefully apply enough pressure to insert the FPM card pins into position, see Figure 3.4.2b. (If you force the FPM down when the pins are not properly aligned with the holes in the header, the pins will become bent and the FPM is damaged).

In this case, it is desirable to operate the fiber link at 100Mb speed, and at either half- or full duplex mode depending on the capabilities of the remote device. Standard commercially-available Fast Ethernet media converters mostly do not support auto-negotiation properly, and require that the switched port to which they are connected be at 100Mb fixed speed.
Magnum 4K8 Switches Installation and User Guide (10/04) Fast Ethernet switched ports operating at 100Mb half-duplex, the bit time delay is 50BT. 4.6 Auto-negotiation for 10/100Mb ports, The Magnum 4K-Series Switches perform half- or full-duplex mode auto- negotiation independently on all switched ports. If the device or node on the other end of a port’s attached cable supports auto-negotiation, the Magnum 4K8 Switch will negotiate to run full-duplex.
