Extended temperature ratings and a variety of options for AC/DC power
supplies qualify this managed 6KQE switch for use in non-temperature controlled
networks and many other temperature sensitive critical Industrial applications where
above normal room temperatures occur while the network is in operation. Full-duplex
future proof fiber media can easily connect long distance subnets and provide a stable
secure network to all applications. The SNMP management capability of the Magnum
6KQE Switch helps create a database of all the network subnets to easily manage the
network.
Example 2: A managed network is needed to provide a redundant ring topology for
maximum redundancy. In a network where any faulty cable, cable disconnection or
power failure can bring the whole thing down, a ring switch can be reconfigured and up
and running in milliseconds. The ring topology of the network consists of high speed
LAN segments supported by 100Mbps full-duplex future-proof fiber media to provide a
secure long distance LAN connection. The entire network is sharing a higher bandwidth
Gigabit-enabled data-mining server for the vital database located in a separate secured
building. The copper ports are required for multiple subnets inside the power plant to
check the status of other Ethernet units. The entire spread network will be manageable to
provide easy, detectable, uninterrupted support through a viewable SNMP monitor.

The Magnum 6KQE Managed Edge Switch equipped with a mix of copper and
fiber ports provides an economical and seamless solution to many requirements. The
user-configurable Magnum 6KQE provides an extra boost to the network requirements
by providing copper/fiber media along with the higher bandwidth support of 10/100 and
1000Mb. The user can utilize the SNMP feature equipped with VLAN, RMON, STP and
