The Magnum CSG14H Hardened units are for the office and factory floor
applications. The CSG14H models are built with high-grade components and are
constructed using special thermal techniques and a metal case for heavy-duty industrial
jobs. In addition to a Hardened AC power option and jack, terminals for internal DC power
choices at 8 to15V, 24V or -48V DC are included. The ambient temperature rating of –25
to 60C is for industrial use. No internal airflow is required for cooling, so it resists dust,
dirt, moisture, smoke and insects. Mounting options include stand-alone panel mounting,
DIN-Rail, or rack-mount tray.
The Magnum CSG14P Premium-rated units are for temperature un
-controlled
applications (-40 to 75C), typically located outdoors. The CSG14P models are built with
premium-grade extended temperature components, and use similar thermal techniques as

the CSG14H Hardened units. In addition to a Premium-rated AC power option and jack,
terminals for internal DC power choices at 8 to15V, 24V or -48V DC are included. When
used outdoors, the CSG14P should be protected from falling rain. Mounting options include
stand-alone panel mounting, DIN-rail, or rack-mount tray.
The CSG14 series provides switching between two 10/100/1000 auto-negotiating copper
ports and one 1000Mb fiber port which may be SC or LC multi-mode or single-mode. The
plug-and-play, energy-efficient, and flavor rich fiber features make this sleek multi-purpose
Switch convenient and cost-effective for the user. The selection of various temperature
ranges enable easy deployment in various environments and qualify the Converter Switch
as a flexible option, which provides multiple solutions using very small space. Providing
the combination of Media Converter with Switch, the CSG14 Series is an ideal choice for
edge-of–the-network applications.

The front side of the unit has two twisted-pair 10/100/1000Mb switch ports and
one 10, 100 or 1000Mb fiber port. Both the RJ-45 ports of the CSG14 Series Converter
switches support auto cross (MDIX) operation performing the autocross function under
auto-negotiation mode only. The CSG14 models are factory configured at Full Duplex.
Two sets of LEDs indicating the operating status of ports are mounted on the top
and front (for extra viewing advantage while rack-mounted). For each port, there are Link
and Activity (LK/ACT) LED’s on the top indicating that the media cables are connected
correctly and showing, by blinking, when there is traffic. The LK/ACT LED’s are
repeated on the front as LA1 (port 1), LA2 (port 2), and LA3 (port 3). There is a power
(PWR) indicator on the front of the unit to validate that the unit is turned ON.

The single fiber port on the CSG14 is multi-mode with an SC connector or small
form-factor connector (LC single-mode).
The external DC power plug connector and/or “jack” and the internal DC input
terminal is provided on the rear of the unit.
2.3 Frame Buffering and Latency
The Magnum CSG14 Series Converter Switches 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. they are good packets. This eliminates 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
www GarrettCom com
..
22
CSG14 Series Gigabit Converter Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)
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 to 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 cut-through 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.
To minimize the possibility of dropping frames on congested ports, each
Magnum CSG14 Series Converter Switch dynamically allocates buffer space from 64Kb
memory pool, ensuring that heavily used ports receive very large buffer space for packet
storage. (Many other switches have their packet buffer storage space divided evenly across
www GarrettCom com
..
23
CSG14 Series Gigabit Converter Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)
all ports, resulting in a small, fixed number of packets to be stored per port. When the port
buffer fills up, dropped packets result.) This dynamic buffer allocation provides the
capability for the maximum resources of the Magnum CSG14 Series unit to be applied to
all traffic loads, even when the traffic activity is unbalanced across the ports. Since the
traffic on an operating network is constantly varying in packet density per port and in
aggregate density, the Magnum CSG14 Series Converter Switches are constantly adapting
internally to provide maximum network performance with the least dropped packets.
When the 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. This flow-control sequence occurs in a small fraction of

a second and is transparent to an observer. See Section 4.6 for additional details.
Another feature implemented in Magnum CSG14 Series Converter Switches is a
collision-based flow-control mechanism (when operating at half-duplex only). When the
Switch detects that its free buffer queue space is low, the Switch prevents more frames
from entering by forcing a collision signal on all receiving half-duplex ports in order to stop
incoming traffic.
The latency (the time the frame spends in the Switch before it is sent along or
forwarded to its destination) of the CSG14 Series Converter Switches varies with the portspeed types. The length of the frame is a variable as it is with all store-and-forward
switches. For 10 Mb-to-10 Mb or 10 Mb-to-100Mb or 100Mb-to-10 Mb forwarding, the
latency is 15 microseconds plus the packet time at 10 Mb. For 100Mb-to-100Mb
forwarding, the latency is 5 microseconds plus the packet time at 100Mb.

CSG14 Series Gigabit Converter Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)
In this example, the Magnum CSG14P Premium Converter Switches are deployed to serve
as a secure corporate or transportation surveillance system. CCTV cameras may be spread
out over many miles in temperature un-controlled locations and with pan, tilt and zoom
(PTZ) controlled through an Ethernet copper port .The premium Converter Switches are
ideally suited to providing copper to fiber media conversion for secure long distance (270km) communication while being installed in temperature un-controlled cabinets and
allowing a full range of AC and DC power options. The second copper port at the remote
location provides access for other Ethernet equipment such as motion detectors or will act
as a test port for maintenance personnel with up-link for access to a central LAN and
central file servers.

3.7 CSG14H and P Series, DC-powered, -48VDC, 24VDC and 12VDC Installation
This section describes the proper connection of the -48VDC leads (or 24VDC,
12VDC leads) to the DC power terminal block on
the Magnum CSG14H hardened media converter
(as shown in Figure). The DC terminal block on
the Magnum CSG14H is located on the left side of
the unit and is equipped with three (3) screw-down
lead posts. The power terminals are identified as
positive (+) and negative (-), and they are floating
inside the unit so that the user if desired may
ground either of the terminals. The chassis is “earth” or ground (GND).
www GarrettCom com
..
47
CSG14 Series Gigabit Converter Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)
The connection procedure is straightforward. Simply insert the DC leads to the
CSG14H’s power terminals, positive (+) and negative (-) screws. The use of Ground
(GND) optional; it connects to the CSG14H chassis. Ensure that each lead is securely
tightened from the top, as shown here.
NOTE: Always use a voltmeter to measure the voltage of the incoming power supply
and figure out the +ve potential lead or -ve potential lead. The more +ve potential lead
will connect to the post-labeled “+ve” and the rest to the “-ve”.
The GND can be hooked up at the last.
When power is applied, the green PWR LED will illuminate.
3.8 Connecting Ethernet Media
The Magnum CSG14 Series Converter Switch can be connected to two media
types i.e. fiber and copper (RJ-45) types, run at 1000BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, 10BASE-T
and 1000BASE-SX/LX/ZX, 100BASE-FX, or 10BASE-FL. CAT 5E cables should be
www GarrettCom com
..
48
CSG14 Series Gigabit Converter Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)
used when making 1000BASE-T 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 10BASE-FL, 100BASE-FX or 1000BASE-SX
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.

49
CSG14 Series Gigabit Converter Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)
NOTE : It is recommended that high quality CAT. 5E cables (which work for 10Mbps,
100Mbps and 1000Mbps) be used whenever possible in order to provide
flexibility in a mixed-speed network, since P80-series switch ports are auto-
sensing for either 10,100 or 1000Mbps. Note that the auto-cross function does
not operate, if the port is fixed or not supporting auto-negotiation.
3.8.1 Connecting Twisted Pair (RJ-45, CAT 3 or CAT 5, Unshielded or
Shielded)
The following procedure describes how to connect a 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX
or 1000BASE-T twisted pair segment to the RJ-45 port. The procedure is the same for both
unshielded and shielded twisted pair cables.
1. Using standard twisted pair media, insert either end of the cable with a RJ-45 plug
into the RJ-45 connector of the port. Note that, even though the connector is shielded,
either unshielded or shielded cables and wiring may be used.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the corresponding device.
3. Use the LINK LED to ensure proper connectivity by noting that the LED will be
www GarrettCom com
..
50
CSG14 Series Gigabit Converter Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)
illuminated when the unit is powered and proper connection is established. If this
does not help, ensure that the cable is connected properly and that the device on the
other end is powered and is not defective.
4. For Port # 1 or 1SW, if the LINK LED is not illuminated, move the switch which
has a cross-over or up-link for linking to another hub or Switch.
3.8.2 Connecting Fiber Optic LC-type, “Small Form factor (SFF)”
The following procedure applies to installations using LC-type fiber connectors,
i.e., using LC single-mode. While connecting fiber media to LC connectors,
simply snap on the two square male connectors into the LC female jacks of the
Fiber connector until it clicks and secures.
3.8.3 Connecting Fiber Optic SC-type, "Snap-In"
The following procedure applies to installations using SC-type fiber connectors,
i.e., using multi-mode SC. While connecting fiber media to SC connectors,
simply snap on the two square male connectors into the SC female jacks of the
Fiber connector until it clicks and secures.
www GarrettCom com
..
51
CSG14 Series Gigabit Converter Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)
3.8.4 Connecting Single-Mode Fiber Optic
When using single-mode fiber cable, be sure to use single-mode fiber port
connectors. Single-mode fiber cable has a smaller diameter than multi-mode
fiber cable (9/125 microns for single-mode, 50/125 or 62.5/125 microns for
multi-mode where xx/xx are the diameters of the core and the core plus the
cladding respectively). Single-mode fiber allows full bandwidth at longer
distances, about 70km with the single-mode LC.
The same procedures as for single-mode fiber apply to multi-mode fiber
connectors. Follow the steps listed in Section 3.8.3 above.
3.8.5 Power Budget Calculations for CSG14 Series, Fiber Media
Receiver Sensitivity and Transmitter Power are the parameters necessary to
compute the power budget. To calculate the power budget of different fiber media
installations using Magnum products, the following equations should be used:
OPB (Optical Power Budget) = P
where P

..
= Transmitter Output Power, and PR = Receiver Sensitivity
T
(min) - PR(min)
T
52
CSG14 Series Gigabit Converter Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)
Worst case OPB = OPB - 1dB(for LED aging) - 1dB(for insertion loss)
Worst case distance = {Worst case OPB, in dB} / [Cable Loss, in dB/Km]
where the “Cable Loss” for 62.5/125 and 50/125
μm (m.m.) is 2.8 dB/km,
and the “Cable Loss” for 100/140 (Multi-mode) is 3.3 dB/km,
and the “Cable Loss” for 9/125 (Single-mode) is 0.5 dB/km

* Note: The use of either multi-mode or single-mode fiber to operate at 1000Mbps speed
over long distances (i.e., over approx. 400 meters) can be achieved only if the following
factors are both applied:
• The 1000Mb fiber segment must operate in full-duplex (FDX) mode, and
• The worst-case OPB of the fiber link must be greater than the fiber cable’s
passive Attenuation.
(Attenuation = Cable loss + LED aging loss + Insertion loss + safety factor)
3.8.6 Connections to NICs which support Auto-Negotiation, RJ-45 ports
The copper ports of Magnum CSG14 Series Converter Switches will function
properly with NICs (Network Interface Cards) which support Auto-Negotiation, and the
Fast Link Pulse (FLP) coding for the 1000BASE-T signaling system. When connecting a
NIC to the CSG14 Series, it may be necessary to reload the NIC drivers on the user device
if the NIC has been communicating with a protocol other than 1000BASE-T (such as
100BASE-TX). When 1000Mb operation is agreed and in use, the Gb LED is illuminated
www GarrettCom com
..
55
CSG14 Series Gigabit Converter Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)
steady ON and is OFF, for 10 or 100Mbps traffic.
4.0 OPERATION
4.1 Triple-Speed Functionality, and Switching
The Magnum CSG14 Series Converter Switches provide three switched ports.
The architecture supports a triple speed-switching environment, with standard autonegotiation capability.
The switched RJ-45 ports are full- or half-duplex auto-sensing for mode and
speed, and auto cross for plug polarity. (See Section 2.2). When the connected device is 10
Mbps, the CSG14s obey all the rules of 10 Mbps Ethernet configurations. The 10 Mbps
users can “communicate” with 100Mbps users as well as other 10 Mbps users through the
switch. Similarly, the 100Mbps traffic obeys the rules of 100Mbps Ethernet, and can
communicate with 10 Mb and 100Mb users.
Magnum CSG14 Series units are plug-and-play devices. There is no software
www GarrettCom com
..
56
CSG14 Series Gigabit Converter Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)
configuring to be done at installation or for maintenance. The only hardware configuration
settings are user options for port #2, to configure it FF/AN. The internal functions of both
are described below.
Switching, Filtering and Forwarding
Each time a packet arrives on one of the switched ports, the decision is taken to
either filter or to forward the packet. Packets whose source and destination addresses on
the same port segment will be filtered, constraining them to one port and relieving the rest
of the network from processing them. A packet whose destination address is on another
port segment will be forwarded to the appropriate port, and will not be sent to the other
ports where it is not needed. Packets needed for maintaining the operation of the network
(such as occasional multi-cast packets) are forwarded to all ports. The Magnum CSG14
Series Converter Switches operate in the store-and-forward switching mode, which
www GarrettCom com
..
57
CSG14 Series Gigabit Converter Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)
eliminates bad packets and enables peak performance to be achieved when there is heavy
traffic on the network.
Switching, Address Learning
The Magnum CSG14 Series units have address table capacity of 1K node
addresses, and are suitable for use in large networks. They are self-learning, so that as
nodes are added or removed or moved from one segment to another, the CSG14 Series
switch automatically keeps up with node locations.
An address-aging algorithm causes least-used addresses to fall out in favor of new
frequently used addresses. To reset the address buffer, cycle power down-and-up.
4.2 Auto-cross (MDIX), Auto-negotiation and Speed-sensing
The RJ-45 ports support auto cross (MDI or MDIX) in the auto-negotiation
mode according to the IEEE 802.3z standard. No crossover cables are needed when
www GarrettCom com
..
58
CSG14 Series Gigabit Converter Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)
connecting the CSG14’s to other unmanaged switches, legacy hubs, managed switches,
media-converters etc. Please note that there can be conditions with managed switches
where the switch manager fixes the port settings via software, and the result of the autonegotiation is changed in the managed switch by the manager commands. In such cases,
the 10/100/1000 speed or the F/H mode may be affected, but auto-cross in the CSG14
Switches will still work. The auto cross function cannot be disabled.
When an RJ-45 cable connection is made, and each time LINK is enabled,
auto-negotiation takes place (except for legacy products, which do not have autonegotiation and which go to the default state accordingly). The Magnum Switch
advertises its capability for 10, 100 or 1000Mbps speed and F/H duplex mode, and the
device at the other end of the cable should similarly advertise / respond. Both sides will
agree to the speed and mode to be used per the IEEE 802.3z standard. Depending upon

5.0 TROUBLESHOOTING
All Magnum Ethernet products are designed to provide reliability and
consistently high performance in all network environments. The installation of Magnum
CSG14 Series 10/100/1000 Mb/s Switches is a straightforward procedure (see
INSTALLATION, Section 3.0); the operation is also straightforward and is discussed in
Section 4.
Should problems develop during installation or operation, this section is intended
to help locate, identify and correct these types of problems. Please follow the suggestions
listed below prior to contacting your supplier. However, if you are unsure of the
procedures described in this section or if the Magnum CSG14 Series 10/100/1000 Mb/s
Switch is not performing as expected, do not attempt to repair the unit; instead contact your

supplier for assistance or contact GarrettCom Customer Support.
5.1 Before Calling for Assistance
1. If difficulty is encountered when installing or operating the unit, refer back
to the Installation Section of the applicable chapter of this manual. Also
check to make sure that the various components of the network are
interoperable.
2. Check the cables and connectors to ensure that they have been properly
connected and the cables/wires have not been crimped or in some way
impaired during installation. (About 90% of network downtime can be
attributed to wiring and connector problems.)
3. Make sure that an AC power cord is properly attached to each Magnum
CSG14 Series unit. Be certain that the AC power cord is plugged
into a functioning electrical outlet. Use the PWR LEDs to verify each unit is
receiving power.

4. If the problem is isolated to a network device other than the Magnum
CSG14 Series 10/100/1000 Mb/s switch product, it is recommended that
the problem device is replaced with a known good device. Verify whether or
not the problem is corrected. If not, go to Step 5 below. If the problem is
corrected, the Magnum CSG14 Series Switch and its associated
cables are functioning properly.
5. If the problem continues after completing Step 4 above, contact your supplier
of the Magnum CSG14 Series 10/100/1000 Mb/s Switch unit or if
unknown, contact GarrettCom, Inc by fax, phone or email
(support@garrettcom.com) for assistance.
