2.0 INTRODUCTION

This section describes CSG14 Series models, including appearance, features and

typical applications.

2.1 Inspecting the Package and the Product

Examine the shipping container for obvious damage prior to installing this
product; notify the carrier immediately of any damage, which you believe occurred during
shipment or delivery. Inspect the contents of this package for any signs of damage and
ensure that the items listed below are included.

This package should contain:
1 Magnum CSG14 Series Converter Switch unit,

1 External Power Supply, (for -Hd, -Hi, -Pd and -Pi models only)

www GarrettCom com

..

14

CSG14 Series Gigabit Converter Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)

1 set Metal panel mounting clips and screws (2 each)
1 User Guide (this manual)

Remove the Magnum CSG14 Series Converter Switch from the shipping
container. Be sure to keep the shipping container should you need to ship the unit at a later
date. In the event there are items missing or damaged contact your supplier. If you need to
return the unit, use the original shipping container. Refer to Section 5 Troubleshooting, for
specific return procedures.

2.2 Product Description

Combine a 10, 100 or 1000Mb Fiber Media Converter and a two-port
10/100/1000 copper Switch, and you have the Converter Switch, a flexible edge-of-the­network Ethernet product. Add in fiber port choices for all multi-mode and single-mode

..

15

CSG14 Series Gigabit Converter Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)

fiber connector types plus AC or DC input power selection and multiple application
environments, and you have the Magnum CSG14 Converter Switch family.

The Magnum CSG14 family of Converter Switches with a 1000Mb, 100Mb or
10Mb Fiber port built in covers the full range of application environments, with Hardened
(factory floor), and Premium-rated (outdoor) versions. Extra features for heavy-duty and
extended temperature operation ranges are included selectively in the Hardened factory­floor and Premium-rated outdoor models. This selection of models and fiber port types
offers the best price-to-value ratio for each user and installation. Where a Media Converter
might have been used, a Converter Switch offers a better value. The compact package is
ideal for network edge installations, and is able to be conveniently mounted to suit any
application.
