2.4 Applications
The primary function of a Magnum 14E Media Converter is to permit two different
media types to coexist within the same network by allowing data to be transmitted / received
between different media types. Magnum 14E media converters provides an effective solution for
a network environment where auto-negotiation is a primary concern for the attached devices.
They also support 100Mb half duplex or full duplex mode, transparent. Because of its auto-
negotiation feature, the Magnum 14E supports an attached “N-way” auto-negotiating RJ-45
switch or hub port, allowing it to operate at its highest performance level, i.e., full-duplex
100Mb/s.
Magnum 14Es are typically used where new 10/100Mb switches or switching hubs with
auto-negotiating RJ-45 ports are being installed, and where full-duplex fiber segments (of up to
2Km for multi-mode or 25Km to 40Km for single mode) are needed
