5.2.5 6KP8-MTRJ, 8 @100Mb multi-mode FX , MTRJ Small-Form-factor

Magnum 6KP8-MTRJ is a multi-mode fiber optic 8-port module equipped with

a small-form-factor MTRJ-type

connector. It looks almost like

an RJ-45 port, but it is black in

color. The MT-RJ’s small size

and ease of connection make it

a good choice for 100Mbps

“fiber-to-the-desktop” Ethernet

connectivity. When installed in

a Magnum 6K32 Switch, it

supports fiber optic cable

distances up the IEEE-standard

100Mbps distance limits, i.e.,

typically 2km at full-duplex and 412m at half-duplex.

The functionality of this 100BASE-FX multi-mode 8 Port module is essentially

the same as the ST and SC-types. It has the same LEDs per port indicating port activity

(ACT), Link (LK), and FDX or HDX operation.

5.2.5a 6KP6-MT10ST, 4 @100Mb multi-mode FX , MTRJ Small-Form-

Factor and 2@ 10Mb Multi-mode ST-Fiber port

The 6KP6-RJ10ST is a combo module with two different kinds of fiber flavor

with two different speeds. The top four ports of MTRJ Small form factor fiber support at

100Mb full-duplex, whereas the bottom two ports multi-mode ST-Fiber support 10Mb

half-duplex. This combo module provides more flexibility to the user to connect their

legacy 10Mb fiber as well as 100Mb to the Magnum 6K32 Switch.

When installed in a Magnum 6K32 Switch, the 100Mb MTRJ connector

supports fiber optic cable distances up to the IEEE-standard 100Mbps distance limits,

i.e., typically 2km at full-duplex and 412m at half-duplex. The 10Mb Multi-mode ST-

Fiber connector supports the standard fiber optic distance limit of 2Km at Full and Half-

duplex both.

The functionality of this 100BASE-FX multi-mode 4 port module is

essentially the same as the ST and SC-types. It has the same LEDs per port
