Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC Managed Switch Installation and User Guide 05/07)

In an eight-port SFF fiber port module, all of the fiber ports are of the same speed (100Mb), mode, and connector type. Models that are available with Small Form Factor (SFF) are multi-mode MT-RJ or LC-type connectors, and single-mode LC-type connectors.

The 100Mb fiber eight-port modules for the Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC normally are set (factory default) to operate in full-duplex mode for best fiber distance and performance. Using the 6K32T & 6K32TRC’s MNS software, the user may select fullor half-duplex mode per-port through the set-up of the software (See the Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC MNS Software Manual for the flexibility to adapt to any FDX or HDX type of Fast Ethernet devices).

There are three LED’s per fiber port. The Link (LK) LED indicates “ready for operation” on that port when lit, the F/H LED indicates operation in full-duplex mode when ON (half-duplex when OFF), and the blinking ACT LED indicates receiving Activity on the port. A fiber cable must be connected into a SFF port and the Link (LK) indicator for that port must be ON (indicating there is a powered-up device at the other end of the cable) in order for a LK LED to provide valid indications of operating conditions on that port.

The four RJ-45 ports operate just like the 8-port copper module with auto-cross (MDIX) feature to eliminate the use of cross-over cable, and the two fiber ports operate at 100Mbps full-duplex (default). User mode control per port through the MNS software is also the same.

On Magnum “4+2” Combo modules, there are four LED’s for each RJ-45 port, which indicate status the same as described for the 6K8-RJ45 in Section 2.2.3 above. The fiber port’s LEDs indicate status the same way as described for the SFF fiber modules in Section 2.2.2 above. Color-coding on the panel of the module shows which LEDs belong to which port.

The Magnum Combo six-port modules are also available with 4@ MTRJ

100Mb mm SFF fiber and 2@10Mb fiber mm ST ports, and with 4@ RJ45 10/100

The 4port @10Mb ST fiber modules behave the same as the 8@100Mb ST fiber modules except for the 10Mb speed. For port numbering, ports 1, 2, 5, 6 are present, ports 3, 4. 7, 8 are not present. The default setup on the 10Mb fiber module is halfduplex, which allows the Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC Switch to connect to any 10Mb hub or media converter or almost any other device with a 10Mb fiber Ethernet port. User mode control per port through the MNS software is the same as the other 6K32T &

6K32TRC modules. The fiber ports support fiber cabling distances according to the 10BASE-FL standard, i.e., 2km distance for multi-mode fiber. (Single-mode for up to 10Km distance may be available as a special order configuration).

2.2.6Gigabit (1000Mbps) port modules

The Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC & 6K32’s offer wide options for Gigabit

speed with multiple choices for the modular slot. The new Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC can be configured with four Gigabit ports (copper or Fiber) maximum. The Gigabit port option for the modular slot comes in a couple of different configurations. The two Gigabit port modules have been offered as GBPM-2OTX (fiber or RJ-45), whereas the single Gigabit module comes in flavors of G+4(10/100 RJ-45 ports) or G+2 (100Mb fiber ports) as shown below in the figure.

1@ 1000Mb Fiber SC + 4@10/ 100Mb

The 6K32T & 6K32TRC modules provide a GBIC opening for insertion of industrystandard GBICs to provide Gigabit (Gb) media flexibility. GBIC models are available for both multi-mode (550m) and single-mode (10, 25, 40, 70)km fiber options, and for Gigabit copper as well with new models appearing often.

The 1000Mb Gigabit fiber-port modules on the Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC are normally set (factory default) to operate at AUTO mode for best fiber distance and performance. The 1000Mbps SC fiber-optic module on the Gigabit -SX and Gigabit-LX transceivers are compatible with the IEEE 802.3z Gigabit standards.

There are two LEDs mounted on each Gigabit port module. The Gigabit fiber port is by default configured to AUTO mode, and can be fixed at 1000Mbps speed fullduplex mode at any time. The Gigabit fiber port has LEDs that indicate LK (Link status) and ACT (receiving activity) on that port when lit.

For Dual Gigabit modules option, please check page#60 for details info.

Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC Managed Switch

Installation and User Guide 05/07)

2.2.7Packet Prioritization, 802.1p QOS

Quality of Service means providing consistent predictable data delivery to

users from datagram paths that go all across a network. As a LAN device, the Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC can do its part to prevent any QOS degradation while it is handling Ethernet traffic through its ports and buffers.

The Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC switching hardware supports the IEEE 802.1p standard and fulfills its role in support of QOS, giving packet processing priority to priority tagged packets according to the 802.1p standard. In addition to hardware support for QOS, the MNS software (R3) supports two priority queues that can be shared across the eight levels of defined packet priorities for application-specific priority control by the user through software configuration settings.

2.2.8Frame Buffering and Flow Control

Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC’s are store-and-forward switches. Each frame

(or packet) is loaded into the Switch’s memory and inspected before forwarding can occur. This technique ensures that all forwarded frames are of a valid length and have the correct CRC, i.e., are good packets. This eliminates the propagation of bad packets, enabling all of the available bandwidth to be used for valid information.

While other switching technologies (such as "cut-through" or "express") impose minimal frame latency, they will also permit bad frames to propagate out to the Ethernet segments connected. The "cut-through" technique permits collision fragment frames (which are a result of late collisions) to be forwarded which add to the network traffic. Since there is no way to filter frames with a bad CRC (the entire frame must be present in order for CRC to be calculated), the result of indiscriminate cutthrough forwarding is greater traffic congestion, especially at peak activity. Since collisions and bad packets are more likely when traffic is heavy, the result of store-and- forward operation is that more bandwidth is available for good packets when the traffic load is greatest.

When the Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC Switch detects that its free buffer queue space is low, the Switch sends industry standard (full-duplex only) PAUSE packets out to the devices sending packets to cause “flow control”. This tells the sending devices to temporarily stop sending traffic, which allows a traffic catch-up to occur without dropping packets. Then, normal packet buffering and processing resumes.
