Designed for use in departments with multiple workgroups, in remote offices
and in network traffic centers, the Magnum 500-Series switches are easy to install and
use. Addresses of attached nodes are automatically learned and maintained, adapting the
switching services to network changes and expansions. The Magnum 500s provide high
performance plug-and-play operation in a compact package.

Figure 2.2a: Front view Magnum 508, 528 and 528F Switching Hubs
Magnum 500-Series switching hubs are equipped with eight shielded RJ-45
ports for shielded and unshielded 10BASE-T connections. Magnum 528 switching hubs
also have two shielded RJ-45 Fast Ethernet ports for 100BASE-TX connection. Both
units include a up-link switch for crossover connection located next to 10Mb Port # 8.
Each 10Mb RJ-45 connector has two LED’s, one to indicate LK/RX (LINK / Receive)
activity and the other (FDX) for indicating full-duplex mode.
On Magnum 528 and 528F models, the 100Mb activity LEDs and the LINK
LEDs are located in the copper Fast Ethernet ports. Other LEDs indicate when auto-
negotiation (copper only) is internally selected, that operating speed is 10Mb or 100Mb,
and when the operating mode is full-duplex. Magnum 528 and 528F models also have
two full/half (F/H) switches for the two 100Mb ports for manual selection of the full- or
half-duplex mode when auto-negotiation is not selected. All connectors, switches and
LED’s are located on the front panel, with the AC power connector located at the rear.
