2.2.5 Two -Port 10 Mb mm Fiber ST Modules
The 2-port @10Mb ST fiber modules behave the same as the 2@100Mb ST
fiber modules except for the 10Mb speed.
The default setup on the 10Mb fiber module is half-duplex, which allows the Magnum
6KQ Switch to connect to any 10Mb hub or media converter or almost any other device
with a 10Mb fiber Ethernet port. The default setting of the 100Mb fiber module is full
duplex. User mode-control per port through the MNS “port settings”
software is the
same as the other 6KQ modules.
The fiber ports support fiber cabling distances according to the 10BASE-FL
and 100BASE-FX standards, i.e., 2km distance for multi-mode fiber. (Single-mode for
greater distances may be available as a special order, request quote).
2.2.6 SFP Gigabit (1000Mbps) port modules
The Gigabit port options for the modular slot come in a few different
configurations of Fiber SFP’s or RJ-45’s. The Magnum 6KQ offers only SFPs (Small
Form Pluggable) for Gigabit speed. There are multiple choices of SFP Gigabit
transceiver types to combine with RJ-45’s for the modular slot. Up to two Gigabit ports
(max.) can be configured in the modular slot D only. An example of a two Gb module is
the 6KQ-2GSFP (SFP fiber). An example of a single Gigabit module is the 6KQ-1GCU
(10/100/1000Mb RJ-45 ports). A combo option of Gigabit copper and SFP fiber (6KQ-
2GSFPCU) is shown below in the figure.
1@ 10/100/1000Mb RJ-45 + 1@ 1000Mb SFP
The 6KQ Modules provide an SFP opening for insertion of industry-standard
SFP transceivers to provide Gigabit (Gb) media flexibility. Gigabit SFP modules are
available in both multi-mode (550m) and single-mode (10, 25, 40, 70) km fiber options
as well as a Gigabit copper option.
