2.2.1 Magnum 6K25e and 6K25eR chassis
The Magnum 6K25e is a 19” rack-mountable Ethernet Switch with three
eight-port slots (A, B, and C) and one Gb-only slot (D) for configuration flexibility. Slots
A, B and C may be configured with any of a large selection of fiber and copper port
types and combinations of types, typically eight ports per module, but sometimes 6 or 4
ports or even one Gb port. Slot D may be configured with a Gb module that accepts
GBICs. The port types configurable using the 4 slots allows the 6K25e to efficiently
serve a large variety of applications, especially using fiber media. The Magnum 6K25e
port modules are normally factory installed, but may be changed or added in the field.
(See Section 5)
Figure 2.2.1a: “Regular” 6K25e front view, configured for 24 +1 Gb ports
Status LEDs are part of each port module and are viewable when connecting
the Ethernet media. A “regular” rack-mount 6K25e is shown in Figure 2.2.1a. On
“Reverse” rack-mount models, there is a duplicate set of LEDs on the other (front) side
for normal status viewing from that direction. Of course, with management, the port
status data is also available in software.
