ports and two 100 Mb Fiber port or five copper ports with one 100Mb Fiber port built in,
covers the full range of application environments, with regular (office), Hardened (factory
floor), and Premium-rated (outdoor) versions. Extra features for heavy-duty and extended
temperature operation ranges are included selectively in the Hardened factory-floor and
Premium-rated outdoor models. The breadth of models and flavor of fiber port types offers
the best price-to-value ratio for each user and installation. The compact package is ideal for
network edge installations, and is able to be conveniently Din rail mounted to suit any
application.
The Magnum Edge switches include Link-Loss-Learn(LLL) feature (factory
configurable on ports 1 and 2 to qualify for any redundant and self-healing managed
network structures. The Link-Loss-Feature in ES42 allows the Edge switches to flush the
internal address buffers in milliseconds to permit a quick change in LAN packets flow, and

The RED labeled Magnum ES42P Premium-rated units are for temperature uncontrolled applications (-40 to 75°C), typically located outdoors. The
ES42P models are built with premium-grade extended temperature
components, and use similar thermal
techniques as the ES42H Hardened units.
In addition to a Premium-rated AC
power option and jack, terminals for
internal DC power choices at 8
to15V, 24V or -48V DC are included.
When used outdoors, the ES42P should
be
protected from rain. Mounting options include
stand-alone panel-mounting, DIN-rail, or rack-mount tray. Fig
2.2f & g, Premium model ES42P-1ff & ES42P-2ff
ES42 Series Edge Switches
Installation and User Guide (05/05)
The ES42P series (as shown in Fig. 2.2f & g) are premium rated units
suitable for temperature un-controlled outdoor applications. Specially designed with
premium-grade extended temperature components, the ES42P units use similar thermal
techniques to the ES42H hardened units for cooling. Mounting options include panelmounting, DIN-rail, or rack-mount tray. Choices of models for external AC or internal DC
power are available. Ambient operating temperature is between –40°C to +75°C depending
on the power source used. Storage temperature rating is between –40°C to +85°C.
All the premium and hardened models also come along with hardware
operated Alarm terminal block for providing extra reliability to the unit. The Alarm feature
allows the ES42H & P users to be aware and to monitor any internal power failure. See
section 44 for details.
The front side of the unit has four/five twisted-pair 10/100Mb switch ports and
one/two 100Mb fiber port. All the RJ-45 ports of the ES42 Series Edge switches support

20
ES42 Series Edge Switches

auto-cross (MDIX) operation under auto-negotiation mode. The ES42 series provides
switching among four 10/100 auto-negotiating copper ports and two 100Mb fiber ports
which may be SC, ST, MTRJ or LC multi-mode or single-mode. The ES42’s breadth of
fiber options and well as temperature options provide many networking options and
solutions in a very small footprint.
Two sets of LEDs to indicating the operating status of ports are mounted on the
top and front (for extra viewing advantage while rack-mounted). For each port, there are
Link and Activity (LK/ACT) LED’s on the top indicating that the media cables are
connected correctly and showing, by blinking, when there is traffic. The LK/ACT LED’s
are repeated on the front as 1 (port 1)…6 (port 6), whereas on the side as LA1…LA6 .
There is another set of LEDs on the front for 10 or H and 100 or F, to indicate the data rate
as well as a set to indicate duplex for ports 1 and 2 only. 10/100 indicates the speed for
copper ports, whereas F/H indicates Full and Half duplex for fiber ports only.
www . GarrettCom . com
21
ES42 Series Edge Switches
Installation and User Guide (05/05)
There is a power (PWR) LED to indicate that the unit is turned ON. The fiber
ports on the ES42 Edge switches are multi-mode or single-mode with an SC, ST or small
form factor connector (MTRJ multi mode or LC single-mode).
The external DC power plug connector and/or “jack” and the internal DC input
terminal is provided on the rear of the unit.
2.3 Frame Buffering and Latency
The Magnum ES42 Series Edge Switches are store-and-forward switches. Each
frame (or packet) is loaded into the Switch’s memory and inspected before forwarding can
occur. This technique ensures that all forwarded frames are of a valid length and have the
correct CRC, i.e. they are good packets. This eliminates propagation of bad packets,
enabling all of the available bandwidth to be used for valid information.
While other switching technologies such as "cut-through" or "express" impose
minimal frame latency, they will also permit bad frames to propagate to the Ethernet
www . GarrettCom . com
22
ES42 Series Edge Switches
Installation and User Guide (05/05)
network. The "cut-through" technique permits collision fragment frames, which are a result
of late collisions, to be forwarded--which add to the network traffic. There is no way to
filter frames with a bad CRC (the entire frame must be present in order for CRC to be
calculated). Since collisions and bad packets are more likely when traffic is heavy, storeand-forward switch technology enables more bandwidth to be available for good packets
when the traffic load is greatest.
To minimize the possibility of dropping frames on congested ports, each
Magnum ES42 Series Edge Switch dynamically allocates buffer space from 128KB
memory pool, ensuring that heavily used ports receive very large buffer space for packet
storage. (Many other switches have their packet buffer storage space divided evenly across
all ports, resulting in a small, fixed number of packets to be stored per port. When the port
buffer fills up, dropped packets result.) This dynamic buffer allocation provides the
capability for the maximum resources of the Magnum ES42 Series unit to be applied to all
www . GarrettCom . com
23
ES42 Series Edge Switches
Installation and User Guide (05/05)
traffic loads, even when the traffic activity is unbalanced across the ports. Since the traffic
on an operating network is constantly varying in packet density per port and in aggregate
density, the Magnum ES42 Series Edge Switches are constantly adapting internally to
provide maximum network performance with the least dropped packets.
When the Switch detects that its free buffer queue space is low, the Switch sends
industry standard (full-duplex only) PAUSE packets out to the devices sending packets to
cause “flow control”. This tells the sending devices to temporarily stop sending traffic,
which allows a traffic catch-up to occur without dropping packets. Then, normal packet
buffering and processing resumes. This flow-control sequence occurs in a small fraction of
a second and is transparent to an observer.
Another feature implemented in Magnum ES42 Series Edge Switches is a collision-based
flow-control mechanism (when operating at half-duplex only). When the Switch detects
that its free buffer queue space is low, the Switch prevents more frames from entering by
forcing a collision signal on all receiving half-duplex ports in order to stop incoming traffic.
www . GarrettCom . com
24
ES42 Series Edge Switches
Installation and User Guide (05/05)
The latency (the time the frame spends in the Switch before it is sent along or
forwarded to its destination) of the ES42 Series Edge Switches varies with the port-speed
types. The length of the frame is a variable as it is with all store-and-forward switches. For
10 Mb-to-10 Mb, 10 Mb-to-100Mb or 100Mb-to-10 Mb forwarding, the latency is 15
microseconds plus the packet time of 10 Mb. For 100Mb-to-100Mb forwarding, the
latency is 5 microseconds plus the packet time of 100Mb.
2.4 Features and Benefits
Full 100Mb or 10 Mb switching services for high performance Ethernet
Magnum ES42 Series Switches provide Fast Ethernet switching on all ports.
They perform high speed filter/forward operations on the traffic, giving each

ES42 Series Edge Switches
Installation and User Guide (05/05)
The compact and lightweight design of the Magnum ES42 Series allows it to be
easily installed in almost any location. A Velcro strip may be used for mounting the unit
on a vertical surface such as a wall or cabinet, or for securing the unit on a table-top or
shelf. Alternatively, metal mounting clips and screws are included for a rugged and secure
mounting in any orientation.
Installation of the Magnum ES42 Series Edge Switches is a simple procedure. The
installation location is dependent upon the physical layout of the Ethernet network and
associated cabling. Make sure the unit is installed in a location that is easily accessible to
an AC power outlet or the appropriate DC source and where cooling is not inhibited. The
green Power (PWR) LED must turn ON when power is applied.

3.2 MC14-TRAY for Rack Mounting of ES42 Series Switches
For 19” rack-mounting
of Magnum ES42 series Edge
Switches, a rack-mount tray is
available, the MC14-TRAY. The
Edge Switches are mounted with
the DC power jack in the back,
with the fiber and the RJ-45
connectors in the front. Any mix
of the Edge Switches and/or
www . GarrettCom . com

Installation and User Guide (05/05)
Media Edges may be placed on a tray, up to a maximum of 8 units. (The mounting spaces
of the MC14-TRAY are specific to the Magnum products and will not permit other models
to be properly mounted).
In a typical installation, the MC14-TRAY, 19” rack-mount tray will hold a few (three to
eight) ES42 Series Edge Switches, with their power supplies plugged into power strips (not
included) in the rear area of the tray. Metal mounting screws in the bottom-front hold the
Edge Switches firmly in place. The beveled-top edge of the units permits the LEDs of each
unit to be viewed for operational status, even when the units are very close together.
3.3 MC14-TR+PS9 and MC14-TR+PS9X2 for Rack Mounting Media Edges
The MC14-TR+ PS9 and MC14-TR+PS9X2 are other options for rack mounting the mix of
Magnum 10Mbps and 100Mbps Edge Switches and Media Edges together in a 19” rackmount tray. These models come with built-in common universal AC power supply rated at
55 watts at 50°C ambient,9VDC output, and supporting up to 2-3 Switches for MC14TR+PS9 and 5 units ES42 Series for MC14-TR+PS9X2. The MC14-TR+PS9X2 Model
www . GarrettCom . com
39

has two groups of eight units per power supply. The power supplies have auto-ranging AC
input for use worldwide.
The side-view < here is an example of
an installation of the model MC14TR+PS9, 19” rack-mount tray, holding
a few ES42, and 14E Media Edges,
each with their power input plugged
into the built-in common AC power
supply in the rear area of the tray. (AC
PS units that come with the office
models of the Edge Switch’s are not
used). Because of the thicker size, only
eight ES42 units can fit in one MC14TRAY.
Metal mounting screws in the bottom-front hold each of the Edge Switches,
securing them in the tray and enabling separate removal for service. The dual LEDs permit
viewing of Edge Switch status from any angle.

3.7 ES42H and P Series, DC-powered, 12VDC, 24VDC and -48VDC Installation
This section describes the proper connection
of the -48VDC leads (or 24VDC, 12VDC leads) to the
DC power terminal block on the Magnum ES42H Edge
Switch (as shown in the Figure). The DC terminal block
on the Magnum ES42H is located on the left side of the
unit and is equipped with three (3) screw-down lead
posts. The power terminals are identified as positive (+)
and negative (-), and they are floating inside the unit so
that either of the terminals may be grounded by the user
if desired. The chassis is “earth” or ground (GND). The
connection procedure is straightforward. Simply insert
www . GarrettCom . com
47
ES42 Series Edge Switches
Installation and User Guide (05/05)
the DC leads to the ES42H’s power terminals, positive (+) and negative (-) screws. The use
of Ground (GND) optional; it connects to the ES42H chassis. Ensure that each lead is
securely tightened from the top, as shown on above picture with arrow.
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 ES42-Series Edge Switches can be connected to two media types
i.e. fiber and copper (RJ-45) types, runt at 100BASE-TX, 10BASE-T and 100BASE-FX
only. CAT 5 cables should be used when making 100BASE-TX connections. When the
www . GarrettCom . com
48
ES42 Series Edge Switches
Installation and User Guide (05/05)
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 10BASEFL 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.

NOTE : It is recommended that high quality CAT. 5 cables (which work for both 10 Mbps
and 100Mbps) be used whenever possible in order to provide flexibility in a
mixed-speed network, since ES42-series switch ports are auto-sensing for either
10 and 100Mbps. Note that the auto-cross function does not operate, if the port
is fixed or not supporting auto-negotiation.

Installation and User Guide (05/05)
Connecting Twisted Pair (RJ-45, CAT 3 or CAT 5, Unshielded or
Shielded)
The following procedure describes how to connect a 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX
twisted pair segment to the RJ-45 port. The procedure is the same for both unshielded and
shielded twisted pair cables.
1. Using standard twisted pair media, insert either end of the cable with a RJ-45 plug
into the RJ-45 connector of the port. Note that, even though the connector is shielded,
either unshielded or shielded cables and wiring may be used.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the corresponding device.
3. Use the LINK LED to ensure proper connectivity by noting that the LED will be
illuminated when the unit is powered and proper connection is established. If this
does not help, ensure that the cable is connected properly and that the device on the
other end is powered and is not defective.
4. For Port # 1 or 1SW, if the LINK LED is not illuminated, move the switch which
has a cross-over or up-link for linking to another hub or Switch.

3.8.2
Connecting Fiber Optic ST-type, “twist-lock”
The following procedure applies to installations using ST-type fiber connectors.
This procedure applies to ports using multi-mode ST fiber connectors.
1. Before connecting the fiber optic cable, remove the protective dust caps from the
tips of the fiber connectors. Save these dust caps for future use.
2. Wipe clean the ends of the dual connectors with a soft cloth or lint-free lens tissue
dampened in alcohol. Make certain the connectors are clean before connecting.
Note:
One strand of the duplex fiber optic cable is coded using color bands
at regular intervals; you must use the color-coded strand on the associated
ports at each end of the fiber optic segment.
3. Connect the Transmit (TX) port (light colored post) on the Magnum Fiber port to
the Receive (RX) port of the remote device. Begin with the color-coded strand of
the cable for this first TX-to-RX connection.
4. Connect the Receive (RX) port (dark colored post) to the Transmit (TX) port of the
remote device. Use the non-color coded fiber strand for this.
5. The LINK LED on the front of the fiber connector will illuminate when a proper
connection has been established at both ends (and when power is ON in the unit). If
LINK is not lit after cable connection, the normal cause is improper cable polarity.
Swap the fiber cables at the fiber connector to remedy this situation.

3.8.3
Installation and User Guide (05/05)
Connecting Fiber Optic SC-type, "Snap-In"
The following procedure applies to installations using SC-type fiber
connectors, i.e., using multi-mode SC and SC single-mode. While connecting
fiber media to SC connectors, simply snap on the two square male connectors
into the SC female jacks of the Fiber connector until it clicks and secures.
3.8.4
Connecting Single-Mode Fiber Optic
When using single-mode fiber cable, be sure to use single-mode fiber port
connectors. Single-mode fiber cable has a smaller diameter than multi-mode
fiber cable (9/125 microns for single-mode, 50/125 or 62.5/125 microns for
multi-mode where xx/xx are the diameters of the core and the core plus the
cladding respectively). Single-mode fiber allows full bandwidth at longer
distances, about 20Km with the multi-mode SC.
The same procedures as for multi-mode fiber apply to single-mode
fiber connectors. Follow the steps listed in Section 3.8.2 above.

3.8.5
Power Budget Calculations for ES42 Series, Fiber Media
Receiver Sensitivity and Transmitter Power are the parameters necessary to
compute the power budget. To calculate the power budget of different fiber media
installations using Magnum products, the following equations should be used:
OPB (Optical Power Budget) = PT(min) - PR(min)
where PT = Transmitter Output Power, and PR = Receiver Sensitivity
Worst case OPB = OPB - 1dB(for LED aging) - 1dB(for insertion loss)
Worst case distance = {Worst case OPB, in dB} / [Cable Loss, in dB/Km]
where the “Cable Loss” for 62.5/125 and 50/125µm (m.m.) is 2.8 dB/km,
and the “Cable Loss” for 100/140 (Multi-mode) is 3.3 dB/km,
and the “Cable Loss” for 9/125 (Single-mode) is 0.5 dB/km
and the “Cable Loss” for 9/125 (Single-mode) is 0.25 dB/km (SSCX)
The following data has been collected from component manufacturer’s (Agilent’s, JDSUniphase, stratus, Lucents’) web sites and catalogs to provide guidance to network
integrators and installers-

* Note: The use of either multi-mode or single-mode fiber to operate at 100Mbps speed
over long distances (i.e., over approx. 400 meters) can be achieved only if the following
factors are both applied:
•
The 100Mb fiber segment must operate in full-duplex (FDX) mode, and
•
The worst-case OPB of the fiber link must be greater than the fiber cable’s
passive Attenuation.
(Attenuation = Cable loss + LED aging loss + Insertion loss + safety factor)
3.8.6
Connections to NICs which support Auto-Negotiation, RJ-45 ports
The copper ports of Magnum ES42-Sereis Edge Switches will function properly
with NICs (Network Interface Cards) which support Auto-Negotiation, and the Fast Link
Pulse (FLP) coding for the 100BASE-TX signaling system. When connecting a NIC to the
ES42-Series, it may be necessary to reload the NIC drivers on the user device if the NIC
has been communicating with a protocol other than 100BASE-TX (such as 10BASE-T).
When 100Mb operation is agreed and in use, the 10/100 LED is illuminated steady ON and
is OFF, if 10 Mbps traffic.

OPERATION
Installation and User Guide (05/05)
4.1 Dual-Speed Functionality, and Switching
The Magnum ES42 Series Edge Switches provide SIX switched ports
with combination of fiber and copper or copper only. The architecture supports a dual
speed switching environment, with standard auto-negotiation capability.
The switched RJ-45 ports are full- or half-duplex auto-sensing for mode and
speed, and auto-cross for plug polarity. (See Section 4.2). When the connected device is 10
Mbps, the ES42s obeys all the rules of 10 Mbps Ethernet configurations. The 10 Mbps
users can “communicate” with 100Mbps users as well as other 10 Mbps users through the
switch. Similarly, the 100Mbps traffic obeys the rules of 100Mbps Ethernet, and can
communicate with 10 Mb and 100Mb users. Magnum ES42 Series units are plug-and-play
www . GarrettCom . com
56
ES42 Series Edge Switches
Installation and User Guide (05/05)
devices. There is no software configuring to be done at installation or for maintenance,
even for the LLL ports. The internal functions of both are described below.
Switching, Filtering and Forwarding
Each time a packet arrives on one of the switched ports, the decision is taken to either filter
or to forward the packet. Packets whose source and destination addresses lie on the same
port segment will be filtered, constraining them to one port and relieving the rest of the
network from processing them. A packet whose destination address is on another port
segment will be forwarded to the appropriate port, and will not be sent to the other ports
where it is not needed. Packets needed for maintaining the operation of the network (such
as occasional multi-cast packets) are forwarded to all ports. The Magnum ES42 Series Edge
Switches operate in the store-and-forward switching mode, which eliminates bad packets
and enables peak performance to be achieved when there is heavy traffic on the network.
Switching, Address Learning
The Magnum ES42 Series units have address table capacity of 2K node
addresses, and are suitable for use in large networks. They are self-learning, so that as
www . GarrettCom . com
57
ES42 Series Edge Switches
Installation and User Guide (05/05)
nodes are added or removed or moved from one segment to another, the ES42- Series
switch automatically keeps up with node locations.
An address-aging algorithm causes least-used addresses to fall out in favor of
new frequently-used addresses. To reset the address buffer, cycle power down-and-up.
4.2 Auto-cross (MDIX), Auto-negotiation and Speed-sensing
The RJ-45 ports support auto-cross (MDI or MDIX) in the auto-negotiation
mode according to the IEEE 802.3u standard. No crossover cables are needed on RJ-45
port, when connecting the ES42 to other unmanaged switches, legacy hubs, managed
switches, media-converter etc. Please note that there can be conditions with managed
switches where the switch manager fixes the port settings via software, and the result of
the auto-negotiation is changed in the managed switch by the manager commands. In
such cases, the 10/100 speed or the F/H mode may be affected, but auto-cross in the
ES42 will still work. The auto-cross function cannot be disabled.
When an RJ-45 cable connection is made, and each time LINK is enabled,
auto-negotiation takes place (except for legacy products, which do not have autonegotiation and which go to the default state accordingly). The Magnum ES42 Switch
advertises its capability for 10 or 100 Mbps speed and F/H duplex mode, and the device
www . GarrettCom . com
58
ES42 Series Edge Switches
Installation and User Guide (05/05)
at the other end of the cable should similarly advertise / respond. Both sides will agree
to the speed and mode to be used per the IEEE 802.3u standard. Depending upon the
devices connected, this will result in agreement to operate at either 10 Mbps or
100Mbps speed, and full- or half-duplex mode.

4.4 Hardware operated Alarm Contact for monitoring internal power supply
The two screws Alarm Contacts feature, standard on Magnum ES42H and P,
provides Normally Closed (NC) contacts to which the user can attach one sets of status
monitoring wires at the green terminal block. When this option is present, the terminal
block for Alarm Contacts is part of the Power Input panel in the Magnum ES42s case. The
DC power input connection is in the same panel.
The NC Alarm Contact is held close
when there is power on the main board inside of the
ES42. This provides a “Hardware operated Alarm”
because the NC contacts will open when internal
power is lost, either from an external power down
condition or by the failure of the power supply inside
of the Magnum ES42 Switch.

procedures described in this section or if the Magnum ES42 Series 10/100 Mb/s Switch is
not performing as expected, do not attempt to repair the unit; instead contact your supplier
for assistance or contact GarrettCom Customer Support.
5.1 Before Calling for Assistance
1.
If difficulty is encountered when installing or operating the unit, refer back
to the Installation Section of the applicable chapter of this manual. Also
check to make sure that the various components of the network are
interoperable.
2.
Check the cables and connectors to ensure that they have been properly
connected and the cables/wires have not been crimped or in some way
impaired during installation. (About 90% of network downtime can be
attributed to wiring and connector problems.)

3.
If the fiber port does not link up while connecting to other device, do a quick
Loop test to test the fiber transceiver is functional or not. Use a short patch
cable of fiber and connect one end of cable to transmit and other end of
receive to the fiber port transceiver. If the Link Led turns solid green, then
the fiber port is functional and working.
4.
Make sure that an AC power cord is properly attached to each Magnum
ES42-Series unit. Be certain that the AC power cord is plugged into a
functioning and appropriate electrical outlet. Use the PWR LEDs to verify
each unit is receiving power.
5.
If the problem is isolated to a network device other than the Magnum
ES42 Series 10/100 Mb/s switch product, it is recommended that
the problem device is replaced with a known good device. Verify whether or
not the problem is corrected. If not, go to Step 6 below. If the problem is

corrected, the Magnum ES42 Series Switch and its associated
cables are functioning properly.
