6K32TRC modules. The fiber ports support fiber cabling distances according to the
10BASE-FL standard, i.e., 2km distance for multi-mode fiber. (Single-mode for up to
10Km distance may be available as a special order configuration).

Gigabit (1000Mbps) port modules
The Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC & 6K32’s offer wide options for Gigabit
speed with multiple choices for the modular slot. The new Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC
can be configured with four Gigabit ports (copper or Fiber) maximum. The Gigabit port
option for the modular slot comes in a couple of different configurations. The two
Gigabit port modules have been offered as GBPM-2OTX (fiber or RJ-45), whereas the
single Gigabit module comes in flavors of G+4(10/100 RJ-45 ports) or G+2 (100Mb fiber
ports) as shown below in the figure.

The 6K32T & 6K32TRC modules provide a GBIC opening for insertion of industry-
standard GBICs to provide Gigabit (Gb) media flexibility. GBIC models are available for
both multi-mode (550m) and single-mode (10, 25, 40, 70)km fiber options, and for
Gigabit copper as well with new models appearing often.
The 1000Mb Gigabit fiber-port modules on the Magnum 6K32T & 6K32TRC
are normally set (factory default) to operate at AUTO mode for best fiber distance and
performance. The 1000Mbps SC fiber-optic module on the Gigabit -SX and Gigabit-LX
transceivers are compatible with the IEEE 802.3z Gigabit standards.
There are two LEDs mounted on each Gigabit port module. The Gigabit fiber
port is by default configured to AUTO mode, and can be fixed at 1000Mbps speed full-
duplex mode at any time. The Gigabit fiber port has LEDs that indicate LK (Link status)
and ACT (receiving activity) on that port when lit.
For Dual Gigabit modules option, please check page#60 for details info.
