2.4 Applications
Magnum 6K16V Fiber Switches offer high performance, modularity and
availability. They provide the flexibility of 100Mbps fiber and copper ports as well as
single or dual Gigabit(1000Mb) ports, with industry-standard LAN management
software. Magnum 6K16V Switches are easily used in a variety of applications including
client/server computing, secure VLAN- performance upgrades to departmental networks,
and stream traffic for VOIP and audio/video applications, or a very diversified
combination of mixed media in Industrial floor applications.. The performance
characteristic of the 6K16V Switches enables them to inter-connect a series of subnets
(one subnet per 6K16V Switch port) in a LAN traffic center. The subnet connections
may be via fiber or twisted pair cabling, 100Mbps or 10 Mbps speed, and full-or half-
duplex.
The mixed-media modular capability is ideal for Industrial applications where
existing Ethernet LAN networks where existing cabling must be accommodated. The
fiber-built-in media capability is ideal for integrating future-proof fiber cabling into the
LAN structure.
Example 1 : Magnum 6K16V Switch for a Industrial application
Equipped with lots of useful features, hardened enclosure, wide spread of
AC/DC power supply option, extended temperature rating qualifies the Magnum 6K16V
Managed switch, for any Industrial factory-floors, traffic control, transportations systems
and power utilities applications. The bundles of MNS-6K software operated features
diversified this managed switch to operate and perform securely and reliably in all
critical applications. The addition of S-Ring and Link-Loss-Learn software feature allow
this Managed switch to provide a very secure highly available redundant network
capability in any ring topology network.
In an Industrial environment where the factory floors are networked with
Ethernet based mixed-media LANs, equipped with PLCs, computers for taking reading
and data from M/C, Client/ Server databases and fetching these important datas to the
central office data warehouses. The Managed 6K16V’s modularity along with MNS-6K
features, remarkably handle these kind of network very securely and reliably through out
the Factory-floors. The DIN-Rail Mounting options on the Magnum 6K16, allow the
Factory floor Industrial’s user to mount securely anywhere on their Network setup.
