2.2 Product Description - Magnum 6KQE Managed Edge Switch
Magnum™ 6KQE Managed Edge Switches provide configurability in an entry-
level industrial-grade package. The high performance 6KQE base unit comes with four
10/100 copper ports (which may be either regular or PoE). Up to 3 100Mb fiber ports or
up to four more 10/100 copper ports or combinations, may also be configured. In
addition, one or two Gb ports may be configured as 10/100/1000 copper or SFP fiber in
any 6KQE base unit.
Magnum 6KQE comes with the best-of-breed MNS-6K managed networks
software. (MNS-6K-SECURE optional) See the Managed Networks Software (MNS-6K)
datasheet for more information at

Magnum 6KQEs are ideal for building a switched, hardened Ethernet network
infrastructure, connecting edge devices such as PLCs and IEDs with upstream switches
or routers. Designed for use in industrial applications such as factory floors and control
cabinets, industrial video surveillance systems with PoE, power utility substations,
tariffed carrier field facilities, or transportation and oil and gas, the rugged Magnum
6KQE handles stressful workloads (mixes of bursty data traffic and priority streaming
traffic) as well as harsh environmental conditions.
Advanced thermal design techniques with ribbed–surface Aluminum cases for
maximum heat dissipation and a sealed case design enables the unit to operate in harsh
Industrial grade environments efficiently. Heavy duty Ethernet Switch jobs are readily
accommodated with an extended temperature rating of -40˚C to 60˚C by the UL
Component Parts method, or -40˚C to 85˚C by the IEC 60068 Type-Test method. With
options such as several popular DC power input types, AC power and DIN-Rail
mounting, the hardened Magnum 6KQE is a “multi-purpose” Industrial Ethernet Switch.
