Magnum DS50 / DS60s Dual Speed Hubs Installation and User Guide (06/02)
Each Magnum DS50 / DS60 Dual-speed Hub Plus is shipped with two mounting
brackets (and screws), to allow the unit to be mounted in nearly any desired orientation or
position. The brackets are attached to the unit’s case with one of the metal screws for each
bracket. It is recommended that the brackets be attached to two opposite corners on the unit.
The brackets should be attached to the Magnum DS50 / DS60 through the round hole of the
bracket. When properly attached, the brackets will extend slightly below the base of the unit to
allow clearance for the rubber feet.
3.1.2 Optional mounting methods, DIN-rail and E-Stand
A) For DIN-rail mounting, a kit is needed that uses the metal mounting brackets (see
3.1.1 above) to attach DIN-rail clips that hold the unit in a vertical position, Ethernet
cables attaching at the bottom. For additional information on DIN mounting, email
support@GarrettCom.com
B) The E-Stand provides a
vertical mounting option for
the DS50 / DS60s. When
horizontal placement is not
possible or desirable (such as
when the unit is placed on a
carpeted floor, which would
potentially block air flow
from the cooling fan), the E-
Stand offers a convenient
installation option. Simply
align the rectangular cut-out on the E-Stand with the air vent on either side of the
DS50 / DS60. The E-Stand also allows the DS50 / DS60 unit to be securely mounted
via two screws that connect through the E-Stand and into the side of the unit.

3.2 Ethernet Media, connections and Specifications
The Magnum DS50 / DS60 Dual-speed Hub Plus can be connected to the following
three media types: 100BASE-TX, 10BASE-T and 100BASE-FX. CAT 5 cables should be used
when making 100BASE-TX connections. When the ports are used as 10BASE-T ports, CAT 3
may be used. In either case, the maximum distance for unshielded twisted pair cabling is 100
meters (328 ft). For fiber port 100BASE-FX multi-mode, 50/125 or 62.5/125 microns cabling
can be used, whereas for single-mode, 9/125 microns cabling should be used. Fiber cabling
supports much longer cable distance and higher bandwidths as compared to copper wiring.
