2.2.2 Eight-port SFF fiber modules (6K8-MTRJ, 6K8-MLC), 100Mb fiber

Fig.2.2.2 :

SFF Fiber Port Modules,

6K8-MTRJ (to the left)
and

6K8-MLC or -SLC
(below)

In an eight-port SFF fiber port module, all of the fiber ports are of the same

speed (100Mb), mode, and connector type. Models 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

6K32’s normally are set (factory

default) to operate in full-duplex

mode for best fiber distance and

performance. Using the 6K32’s

MNS software, the user may select full- or half-duplex mode per-port through set-up of

the software (See Magnum 6K32 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.
