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 CS14 & CSN14 Series Converter Switch can be connected to two
media types i.e. fiber and copper (RJ-45) types, runt at 100BASE-TX, 10BASE-T and
100BASE-FX, or 10BASE-FL. CAT 5 cables should be used when making 100BASE-TX
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 or 100BASE-FX 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.
