Magnum 12KX Managed Ethernet Switches
The Magnum 12KX is the first Gigabit-only switch with 16 combo ports for copper and/or fiber ports and optional Layer 3 switching software. The Magnum 12KX Gigabit Managed Switch, with advanced bandwidth capacity, is a workhorse backbone switch with applications in power utilities, surveillance and security, transportation, and heavy industry. With Layer 3 switching capability, based on high-performance routing using Layer 3 addressing information, the 12KX will rapidly route large amounts of data in applications using complex networking techniques such as VLANs or multicast routing strategies.
The devices provide you with a large range of features:
- Hardened backbone switch for Smart Grid substations or physical security multi-cast networks
- Gigabit Ethernet switch, 16 RJ45 + SFP fiber "combo" ports
- Substation hardened, with IEEE 1588 Timing on all ports
- Layer 2 or Layer 3 software, MNS-12KX
- 4 802.3af PoE ports (optional)
- Dual or single internal power supplies
- Hardened to substation EMI/ESD specs and -40° to +85° C with no fans
- Low power consumption (28 watts max) for efficient operation
- IEEE 1588v2 or IEEE 1588v1 support in MNS-12KS Management Software
- Interoperable with Magnum 10KT for IEEE 1588v2 time synchronization
- IEEE 1613 and IEC 61850 Environmental Standards for Substation Automation Products
- MNS-12KX Software available in both GUI and CLI user interfaces
- Redundancy features include RSTP-2004 for fast recovery from faults
- Layer 3 software with OSPF provides fast recovery for routed networks
- IGMP v1, v2 and v3 interoperate where L3 router or switch is available
- GVRP transmits VLAN information and eases configuration for VLANs across a network
- 4 queues (8 levels) of QoS provide pre-emptive scheduling for video surveillance and VoIP devices
- LACP offers parallel links to aggregate throughput in special cases
- RADIUS support for security
- PIM - Dense and Sparse Mode
- Optional conformal coating for outdoor application
