Magnum 6K16V Managed Fiber Switch Installation and User Guide (06/04)
Note that the back of the 6K16V unit is held out from the panel or wall behind it,
creating a rear space of about ¼ inch or 1cm. This allows air circulation and cooling of
the rear part of the case. Since the 6K16V uses special internal thermal techniques
(patent pending) to move the heat generated by the electronic components inside into the
case, the case may be quite warm to the touch during normal operation.
The unit can be mounted using the brackets turned outside (normal) or inside (if space is
tight). Attach the mounting bracket either outside or inside as shown in the illustration
above (dotted line shown for the brackets inside). The spacing for the mounting screws
imto the supporting wall or panel is a rectangle 11.89” x 7.85” center-to-center.
3.4 Powering the Magnum 6K16V Managed Fiber Switch
The Magnum 6K16V Switches incorporate an internal universal power supply
and have a recessed male IEC connector for the AC power cord at the left-rear. A
manual power ON-OFF switch is adjacent. A six-foot 115 VAC 60 Hz standard power
cord is supplied with each unit shipped within the United States and Canada.
The auto-ranging power supply supports installation environments where the
AC voltage is from 90 to 260 volts with a power input frequency between 47 and 63 Hz.
The 16-port units will consume over 20 watts of power typically. When connecting the
Ethernet cabling, there is no need to power down the unit. Individual cable segments can
be connected or disconnected without concern for AC power-related problems or damage
