2.3 Features and Benefits
Managed switching for high performance Ethernet LANs
Magnum 6K25e Switches provide non-blocking (all ports can run at full speed at
once) performance with standard Managed Networks Software (MNS-6K) included.
They are typically used in LAN traffic centers with eight Gigabit ports or 16 to 24
100Mb ports and one or 2 Gigabit ports for backbone connections, where managed
network services are desired.
Switching services includes 802.1p QoS packet prioritization
The Magnum 6K25e switching hardware supports QoS, giving packet processing
priority to priority tagged packets according to the IEEE 802.1p standard. For port-
and application-specific priorities, the QoS software may be configured by the user.
Features Fiber-Built-In
Magnum 6K25e Managed Fiber Switches are designed to naturally include fiber ports,
and support mixes of multi-mode and single-mode; 10 Mb, 100Mb and 1000Mb
speed; full-and half-duplex; classic Small Form Factor (SFF) and GBIC fiber
connectors. RJ-45 10/100 ports can also be configured in the mix of port types.
Modular design for port flexibility, in a 1U space-saving rack-mount package
The 1U Magnum 6K25e chassis has 4 slots for port configurations. Family of 4, 6 or 8
port modules allow the user to select the desired mix of port types & speeds. The port
modules are normally factory installed and tested, but may be changed in the field.
Rack-mounting may be standard or “reverse”, 19 inch or ETSI or 23” Telco
The standard rack mounting provides Ethernet ports and status LEDs in front, service
connections (power input and management console) in the rear. “Reverse” rack
mounting provides status LEDs in front and all cabling connections in the rear.
Standard 19’ rack mount brackets are included, with ETSI and 23” Telco optional.
Standard AC power input, -48VDC or 24VDC or 125VDC input is optional
Standard AC power input is IEC plug, auto-ranging for worldwide use. For special
applications, models with –48VDC or 24VDC or 125VDC are available. Dual Source
DC input can also be selected and configured on the DC power input models.
Heavy-duty design for Industrial Ethernet and extended temperature operation.
Fiber ports take more power than copper ports, but the Magnum 6K25e design
provides for this with heavy-duty components. The ambient temperature can be up to
55C.
NEBS and ETSI tested and certified
The 6K25e has been tested and certified for NEBS and ETSI. Request test reports.
MNS-6K licensed Network Management Software included, S-Ring optional
