Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed Stackable Hubs  
Installation and User Guide (07/06)  
2.2  
Product Description - General  
Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed hubs have sixteen RJ-45 ports, each 10/100Mb auto-  
sensing *. Each port can independently identify (via IEEE 802.3u auto-sensing) and accept  
either 100Mb or 10Mb Ethernet signals, adapting to match the best speed of the connected  
device. There are two internal traffic domains in Magnum DS8016 hubs, one for the 100Mb  
traffic and one for the 10Mb traffic. The 100Mb users share the 100Mb domain’s bandwidth  
and the 10Mb users share the 10Mb domain’s bandwidth.  
* Note: the “special 100Mb-only” model DS8016-E is not dual-speed. See Section 2.2.3 below.  
Any DS8016 port can connect into either the 100 or the 10Mb traffic domain, and  
can also change from one traffic domain to the other at any time without affecting the speed  
of other ports. The automatic per-port speed-sensing is continuous (it takes place at LINK  
enable, see section 4.2 for details), allowing the connected devices to change speed at any  
time without impairing the operation of the other ports and connected devices.

Figure 2.2 a : Magnum DS8016s are functionally both a 10Mb and a 100Mb hub in one  
As Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed units are stacked, the two shared traffic domains  
automatically expand to support all of the ports in the stack. Any combination of 10Mb and  
100Mb ports, up to the maximum of 48 ports (3 units) in one stack, can be in use at any time.  
Some DS8016 models, the Magnum DS8016-B and DS8016-R, include an internal  
bridge or switch module which interconnects the 10 Mb and the 100Mb traffic domains. This  
enables all users on a DS8016-B or -R hub or a DS8016 stack, whether 100Mb or 10Mb, to  
talk to each other. The internal switch of the DS8016’s filters and selectively forwards  
packets between the 10Mb and the 100Mb domains, maintaining peak performance in each  
domain unaffected by local traffic in the other domain. The internal bridge is self-learning,  
with large address table capacity for up to 8K node addresses. As networked nodes are  
added or removed or move from one speed domain to the other, the DS8016-B’s (or DS8016-  
R’s) internal switch automatically keeps track.

Figure 2.2 b : The DS8016-B is a DS8016 with a bridge module built-in for 10 and  
100Mb  
Only one DS8016-B unit is needed to support a stack. Additional 16-port units of  
the DS8016-A “add-on” and/or DS8016-E “100-only” hubs . . . units that do not have the  
bridge module inside, and which cost less accordingly . . . can be added to the stack, up to the  
3-unit stack maximum. In a stack, the DS8016-B unit (illustrated below as the bottom unit)  
can be in any stack position.  
Figure 2.2 c : Stack of DS8016’s, 2@ DS8016-A’s and 1 @ DS8016-B  
DS8016-A units can also be used without a DS8016-B, whereupon they will  
function as dual-speed stackable hubs. This could be desired if an external non-auto-sensing  
switch (such as the Magnum 300ES Two-Port Switch) is available to interconnect the two  
speed domains, or if only 100Mb devices are connected (use the DS8016-E for this? See  
2.2.3 below) and the 10Mb domain is unused, or if dual-speed operation with two  
unconnected and uncoordinated domains is needed for the application.  
Each DS8016 has its own internal power supply, and is easily added to an existing 10 or  
100Mb network. DS8016s are suitable for wiring closet shelf, table-top or 19” rack-  
mounting. Optional brackets for 23” telco rack-mounting are available.  
2.2.1  
Magnum DS8016 Chassis  
The Magnum DS8016 chassis houses one main PC board, a bridge module daughter- board  
in the Model DS8016-B and DS8016-R, and an internal power supply unit. The front side of  
the chassis has sixteen RJ-45 twisted-pair ports, one of which (Port #1X on the left-front) can  
be used for cascading (UP-LINK).

100M/Auto indicators for each port. (See Section 1.1 “Specifications” for a technical  
description of the LEDs). The unit has a cooling fan on the side which sends warm air out  
away from the unit to the side. Stacking cables connect in the rear, except for the DS8016-R  
model. (see Section 2.3 for stacking information).  
The AC power cord connector, a universal recessed-male IEC type, is in the left  
rear of the chassis. The internal AC power supply is auto-ranging for any AC power input of  
115 - 230 vac, 50 - 60 Hz. (An internal DC power supply is optional, see Appendix A).  
2.2.2  
10 / 100 Speed Auto-sensing  
All sixteen RJ-45 twisted pair ports support auto-sensing for speed, independent of  
the other ports. Speed-sensing is performed by the DS8016’s electronics in accordance with  
the standards of the IEEE 802.3u auto-negotiation standard. If the connected device or node  
indicates that it is capable of 100Mb speed, then operation on that port will be at 100Mb/s. If  
the connected device does not positively indicate that it is capable of 100Mb speed, then the  
operation on that DS8016 port will be at 10Mbps. Of course, the hubs’ auto-negotiation  
technique is only for 10 / 100 speed, and does not provide for any full-duplex operation.  
When a port is connected and LINK is present, the speed on that port that has been  
sensed by the DS8016 hub will be indicated by the ‘100M/Auto’ LED for that port. The  
‘100’ LED is ON when 100Mb speed is sensed, and is OFF when 10Mb speed is in use.  
When a port is not connected, the ‘100M/Auto’ LED corresponding to that port will be  
blinking to indicate that it is trying to auto-negotiate. (See section 4.3 for operation of the  
LED’s).

Installation and User Guide (07/06)  
2.2.3: Magnum DS8016-E model, 100Mbps -only  
The Model DS8016-E is like the DS8016-A except that it’s speed is internally  
fixed at 100Mbps on all ports. It is not dual-speed. It has no bridge inside. It is used for  
100Mbps-only applications, and it can operate stand-alone or stacked with the other DS8016-  
B and DS8016-A models.  
Special orders of this model can be built with some ports fixed at 10Mb. If your  
application requires a mix of fixed 100Mb and fixed 10 Mb ports, request a special quote.

The Magnum DS8016-R is like the DS8016-B except that the front panel has  
the LEDs, and all the connecting ports and power feeds are in the back. This is convenient  
for rack-mounting where cabling is accessed from the rear of the rack while the operating  
status LEDs are monitored from the front. Typically such arrangements are found in telco  
rack installations.  
The Magnum DS8016-R is dual-speed, and has a bridge module inside. The  
bridge module interconnects 10 Mbps and 100Mbps domains, allowing all connected users  
to talk to each other. The DS8016-R operates stand-alone, i.e., it is a non-stackable model.  
In addition, the MII port in the rear of other DS8016 models is not present for the DS8016-R.  
Normally the DS8016-R is quipped with an optional internal 48VDC power  
supply (See Appendix A). There is an additional option of a dual-source 48V input (See  
Appendix B).  
The DC power feed options and the high quality and versatility make the  
Magnum DS8016-R a good high-availability choice for telcos, ISPs, broadcast equipment,  
medical, brokerage firm and financial facilities. In applications where downtime of the  
operation is not acceptable, the DS8016-R provides a good Ethernet LAN solution.

2.3  
Stacking Magnum DS8016s  
Up to three Magnum DS8016s can be stacked to operate as one 10/100 dual-speed  
repeater with up to 48 dual-speed ports. Normally, one Magnum DS8016-B hub per stack is  
needed to provide a switched interconnection between the two separate 100Mb and 10Mb  
traffic domains in the stack. Additional stacked units are normally Model DS8016-A or -E  
“add-on” units, which cost less. The stacks can also include Magnum 8000X Fiber Hubs.

Figure 2.3 : Magnum DS8016’s stacked. Cables connect between “Out” and “In” Ports  
The DS8016-B models with the bridge module inside look the same as the  
DS8016-A or -E units (no bridge inside) from the outside. The “BR” LED on the front will  
light up when power is applied to indicate that a DS8016 is a -B (bridge inside) model. (The  
“BR” LED will be off if the unit is a Model DS8016-A or -E). The DS8016-B models  
cannot be stacked together, as their internal bridges would not be able to function properly  
when more than one is present. (Note that two DS8016-B units may be cascaded to operate  
together, however). Use DS8016-B models non-stacked, or with only 1 Model DS8016-B in  
a DS8016 stack. See Section 2.7, Example 3.  
When stacking DS8016’s, please make sure to use only the shielded 9-inch long  
stacking cable provided with each DS8016-A or -E unit. The cable length is designed to  
provide proper operation of up to three DS8016 units in a stack, and longer cables or  
unshielded cables are not permitted as they will not operate properly at 100Mb speeds.  
When connecting DS8016s in a stack, use the stacking cable to connect the “Out”  
stacking port from one DS8016 unit to the “In” stacking port of the other. Push in the cable  
connectors until they seat in firmly. Also, leave space along the left-side (from the front)  
area for the exhaust of the internal cooling fan in each DS8016 unit. SeeFig.2.3) above.

Bridge Module between the 10Mb and 100Mb Domains  
Bridge  
Module  
BUS 100  
Figure 2.4 : Internal view of DS8016-B  
with bridge module installed  
10  
Magnum DS8016-B’s and  
DS8016-R’s contain a factory-installed bridge module to interconnect the two traffic domains,  
filtering and selectively forwarding packets to allow only necessary packets to cross between  
the domains. This enables all of the users and nodes connected into either domain, whether  
100Mb or 10Mb, to talk to each other, and it keeps local traffic on one domain from consuming  
any of the bandwidth of the other domain.  
The bridge operates in the store-and-forward mode, which filters out bad packets and  
maintains optimum performance in both domains. Packet forwarding delay is only 5µs (plus  
packet time), much less than traditional store-and-forward bridge products, enabling the  
DS8016s to maintain high network performance. The bridge has 8K node address capacity,  
suitable for use in large networks. Addresses are self-learning so that filtering / forwarding of  
10Mb and of 100Mb packets is maintained correctly even when users move their connection, or  
change speed, or power down.  
The DS8016-B’s and DS8016-R’s bridge module is implemented as a daughter board.  
DS8016 units have an LED on the front labeled BR that will be ON when the module is  
installed internally. Power up any DS8016 unit, and if the BR LED is ON, it is a Magnum  
DS8016-B or DS8016-R unit.  
NOTE : Only one Magnum DS8016-B (with a bridge module built-in) is  
allowed per repeater stack. Thus, if the DS8016s in a stack have more than  
one BR (bridge) LED ON, it is an illegal configuration.  
2.5  
Up-link, Port 1X for Cascading  
The unit has an Up-link Port 1X, located on the left-front side of the hub. It enables  
the first port’s RJ-45 cable to either connect to a user station ( port 1) or to be cascaded to  
another hub (port 1X) with cross-over. (See Section 4.4 for more details about Up-link).  
Like all DS8016 ports, Port # 1X is a dual-speed port which will sense the speed of the  
connected device. Use port 1X on one DS8016 and port 1 (or any port) on the second, i.e.,  
use only one crossover port for the cascaded hubs connection. When the Up-link port is used

Installation and User Guide (07/06)  
to cascade two DS8016 hubs or stacks together, the auto-sensing feature will cause the  
connecting link to operate at 100Mb speed.  
2.6  
Features and Benefits  
Supports 10 or 100Mb network connections on each of sixteen RJ-45 ports  
Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed 10 / 100 hubs combine two logical hubs . . . one at  
10Mb and one at 100Mb . . . in one physical box supporting two traffic domains. Each  
port can operate at either 10 or 100Mb, independently of the other ports.  
Auto-sensing for speed, 10 or 100Mb on each port  
All ports support 10/100 auto-negotiation for speed, operating separately on each port.  
Any mix of 10Mb and 100Mb users can be connected to the ports. Speed-sensing  
occurs at LINK-enable independently on each port. Individual ports can change to  
100Mb or 10Mb speed at any time (LINK off, then on again), adapting automatically  
to any changes in the connected device’s speed. Speed-sensing complies with IEEE  
802.3u, providing interoperability with other products.  
An internal switch connects the 10 and 100Mb domains on Model DS8016-B  
Model DS8016-BAND DS8016-R has an internal switch for filtering / forwarding  
traffic between the 10 and 100Mb domains, allowing all connected devices to  
communicate to each other. High performance switching provides full bandwidth in  
each domain, unaffected by local traffic on the other domain. One DS8016-B per stack  
supports switching for all ports.  
Stackable for flexible expansion  
Magnum DS8016s can be stacked up to three units high for 48 ports, each 10 / 100  
dual speed. As additional units are added in a stack, 10 and 100Mb traffic domains are  
expanded automatically to support the new ports at either 10 or 100Mb speed.  
Installation is “Plug and Play”, Operation is Transparent to Software  
The Magnum DS8016-B operates as a hardware switch, only forwarding those packets  
from each domain that are needed on the other domain. Internal address tables are  
self-learning, enabling users to change port connections or 10 / 100 domains without  
affecting operations. The switch in the DS8016-B will not affect any standard  
software applications or SNMP network management platforms.

Applications  
Example 1 : A Magnum DS8016-B serves a small office with mixed speed requirements.  
Some users operate at 100Mb, and some users and utility devices (such as print servers) run  
at 10Mb. All share the same hub, and talk to each other via the bridge module inside. Any  
node can change speed at any time without affecting network operation or impacting other  
users.

Figure 2.7.1 : DS8016-B connects combinations of 10Mb and 100Mb network devices  
Example 2 : Where there are existing 10Mb hubs and users, they can easily be cascaded  
into any port of the DS8016-B. This allows simple plug-and-play addition of 100Mb ports to  
an existing 10Mb network without having to change it. Nodes that are capable of 100Mb  
speed can be moved to any DS8016 dual-speed port, and will automatically operate at the  
higher speed. The dual-speed ports on the DS8016-B can be used for adding 100Mb users or  
for accommodating existing high performance users. The 100Mb traffic does not use the  
bandwidth of the 10Mb domain, so overall performance of the network is improved.

Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed Stackable Hubs  
Installation and User Guide (07/06)  
Example 3 :  
For additional expansion, DS8016s can be expanded by stacking DS8016-A “add-  
on” units. The additional stacked ports are all auto-sensing dual-speed domain-switched, and  
can be used at either 10Mb or 100Mb on a per-port basis.  
The stacking cables connect the DS8016 units and carry the signals for both the  
100Mb and the 10Mb domains. In a stack, all 10Mb ports are together in a 10Mb traffic  
domain while all 100Mb ports are similarly together on a separate 100Mb traffic domain.  
When one DS8016-B unit with a bridge inside is present in a stack, its bridge will support all  
of the ports in the stack and enable network traffic to move between the two stacked  
domains.  
A Magnum DS8016 stack operates as one dual-speed repeater. A dual-speed  
repeater is both a 10Mb hub and a 100Mb hub at the same time. This means that the 10Mb  
traffic domain obeys all of the rules of 10Mb shared Ethernet networks (hop counts, cable  
types, cable distances, etc.) and can be treated as one 10Mb repeater accordingly. Separately,  
the 100Mb traffic domain obeys all of the rules of 100Mb Fast Ethernet shared networks (hop  
counts, PDVs, cable types, cable distances, etc.) and can be treated as one 100Mb repeater.  
Both traffic domains function within the same physical DS8016 hub or stack of hubs.

When expanding  
an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet installation, the Magnum DS8016 Hubs are ideally suited for  
connecting servers and stations that have (or may have in the future) mixed speeds. Each  
traffic domain or segment has its own local traffic with the Magnum DS8016-B performing  
bridge-isolation of one domain from the other, filtering and selectively forwarding 10Mb and  
100Mb packets between the two domains. This keeps the traffic between the domains to a  
minimum and provides peak performance on both domains.

Magnum DS8016 Installation  
Before installing the equipment, it is necessary to take the  
following precautions:  
1.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack  
assembly, the environmental temperature around the equipment must  
be less than or equal to 500C.  
2.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack  
assembly, adequate air flow must be maintained for proper and safe  
operation.  
3.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack  
system placement of the equipment must not overload or load  
unevenly the rack system.  
4.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack  
assembly, verify the equipment’s power requirements to prevent  
overloading of the building/s electrical circuits.  
5.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack  
assembly verify that the equipment has a reliable and uncompromised  
earthing path.  
6.) If the intra-building wiring (cabling) is involved with this  
product(NEBS), then it is recommended to have shielded cable and  
the shield is grounded at both ends.  
7.) This equipment is for installation only in a Restricted Access  
Location (dedicated equipment room service closet and the like) in  
accordance with the National Electrical code.  
Installation: This chapter provides instructions for installing the Magnum DS8016 hubs.  
3.1  
Locating Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed Hubs  
The location of a Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed Hub is dependent on the physical  
layout of the network. Typically the hub is placed where combinations of 10Mb and 100Mb  
network devices need to be connected to communicate with each other. The 19” rack width  
size of the unit allows it to be conveniently placed in a wiring closet, an office or a lab area,  
and it can also be either shelf- or rack-mounted. (See instructions in 3.1.2 below). Rack-  
mounting brackets are included with each unit.  
Locate an AC receptacle that is within six feet (2 meters) of the intended Magnum  
DS8016 site. The rugged metal case of the Magnum DS8016 will normally protect it from  
accidental damage in a lab or workplace setting. Maintain an open view of the front to  
visually monitor the status LEDs. Keep an open area around the unit so that cooling can  
occur from the small fan on the left side while the unit is in operation.  
3.1.1  
Table-Top or Shelf Mounting  
The Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed Hub can be easily mounted on a table-top or  
any suitable horizontal surface, and has four rubber feet to provide stability without  
scratching finished surfaces.

Rack-Mounting  
Installation of a Magnum DS8016 Stackable Hub in a 19” rack is a simple  
procedure. The units are 1U (1.75”) high, including the rubber feet underneath. When  
properly installed, the front-mounted LED status indicators should be in plain view and easy  
to read. Rack-mount installation requires special rack-mounted brackets and screws (included  
with each DS8016). The brackets  
attach to the front sides of the  
hub, which is then fastened into a

the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than  
room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment  
in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma)  
specified by the manufacturer.  
B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that  
the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not  
compromised.  
C) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such  
that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.  
D) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the  
equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might  
have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of  
equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.  
E) Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be  
maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than  
direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips)."  
3.2  
Connecting Ethernet Media  
The Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed Stackable Hubs can be connected to the  
following two media types: 100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T. CAT 5 cables should be used  
when making 100BASE-TX connections. When the 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).

3.2.1  
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 an 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  
4. For Port #1, if the LINK LED is not illuminated, change to port 1X. 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.  
3.2.2  
Attaching to the MII port in the rear  
MII Transceivers may be attached here. Since there are no industry standards for these,  
interoperability of user-selected MII transceivers that may be attached to a DS8016’s MII  
port cannot be assured. Use of the MII port is not normally recommended accordingly.  
3.2.3  
100Mbps Collision Domain Diameter, Cable Distances and PDV  
Calculations  
The 100Mbps Collision Domain Diameter is the length of the longest path  
between any two devices in a single collision domain. A collision domain is defined as a  
cluster of network devices which are connected by means of a repeater or repeaters such that  
no bridging devices are present between any two devices in the cluster. In order to install an  
IEEE 802.3u compliant Fast Ethernet network, the collision domain . . regardless of the  
actual network topology . . must be less than 512 BT (Bit Times). Bit Times are related to  
media type as shown in Table 3.2.3a.

*Worst case delays taken from IEEE Std 802.3u -1995.  
To determine whether a prospective network topology adheres to the collision  
domain diameter specification, the following formula should be applied to the worst case  
path through the network. The worst case path is the path between the two Fast Ethernet  
devices (DTEs) which have the longest round-trip time.  
PDV = (sum of cabling delays) + (sum of repeater delays) +  
(DTE pair delay) + (safety margin)  
PDV is the Path Delay Value of the worst case path. For the network to adhere to  
IEEE standard, this value must be less than 512 BT. The safety margin is specified in BT  
and may be a value between 0 and 5. This margin can be used to accommodate unexpected  
delays such as extra long patch cable. A safety margin of about 2 to 4 BT is recommended.  
A typical example of a PDV calculation is shown below, and is illustrated in Figure  
3.2.3a. Here, an integrator wishes to cascade the 100Mbps collision domains of two  
Magnum DS8016 Hubs (each having a PDV of 80 BT) for use with standard 100m Category  
5 user cable segments (i.e. from computer to hub) and needs to know how long the inter-  
repeater Category 5 cable segment, used to cascade the hubs, can be. The variable “X”  
represents the unknown maximum cascade cable delay.  
PDV = X + ((111 + 111) + (80 + 80) + (100) + 2 ) BT < 512 BT

re 3.2.3a: Two cascaded Magnum DS8016 hubs  
The resulting value tells us that a Category 5 cable with a length of up to 25 meters  
may be used to cascade the Magnum DS8016 s. Note that this inter-repeater cable length  
may be increased by shortening the lengths of the 100m hub-to-user cable segments.  
It is also possible to cascade a group of up to nine Magnum DS8016 s (serving up  
to 56 users with full-length 100m cables to each) by using short inter-repeater cable  
segments. The following is an example of how to calculate the maximum allowable cascade  
cable segment length. An illustration of this example is shown in Figure 3.2.3b, where the  
hub-to-user cable lengths are up to 75 meters for Cat 5 twisted pair. The variable “X”, the  
maximum hub-to-hub cable delay, is calculated as follows:  
PDV = X + ((100) + (80 + 80 + 80 )+ (83 + 83) + 2 ) BT < 512 BT  
512 > (X + 508) BT,

In the above example, 75 is the BT delay for 70m of Category 5 cable (1.112 BT/m), 80 is  
the bit time delay for each Magnum DS8016 front-to-front ports, 100 is the BT delay for the  
TX DTE pair in the user stations, and 2 BT is the safety margin applied.

industry standards normally permit, and is different from what competitive 100Mbps Class II  
hub products normally allow. This additional cascading level and cable length is due to the  
relatively shorter bit time (80 BT actually measured, for front-port-to-port) delay of the  
Magnum DS8016 vs. the industry standard delay of 92 BT for Class II repeaters. The  
installation flexibility and network growth potential is accordingly better with Magnum  
DS8016 s than with hubs that merely meet the standard.  
Table 3.2.3c shows maximum cable lengths for common network configurations  
using industry standard repeater PDV numbers. Calculations such as above should be  
performed using measured PDV data supplied by the equipment manufacturer in important  
installations.

Instructions for connecting the Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed Hubs to the various  
Fast Ethernet media are given in the following sections.  
3.2.4  
Connections to NICs which support Auto-Negotiation  
The Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed Hub will function properly with NICs (Network  
Interface Cards) which support Auto-Negotiation. The Magnum DS8016 will establish link  
with any NIC which can send and receive the Fast Link Pulse (FLP) coding for the  
100BASE-TX signaling system. When connecting a NIC to the DS8016, 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 100Mb LINK/ACT LED is illuminated, steady ON if no traffic or  
blinking when there is traffic.  
3.3  
Powering the Magnum DS8016  
Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed Hubs incorporate an internal universal power supply,  
and have a recessed male IEC connector for the AC power cord in the rear. A six-foot 115

VAC 60Hz power cord is supplied with each unit shipped within the United States and  
Canada.  
Each Magnum DS8016’s auto-ranging power supply supports installation  
environments where the AC voltage is from 90 to 260 volts with an input frequency between  
47 and 63 Hz, and consumes a maximum of 27 watts. In order to power the unit up or down,  
simply change the setting of the rear-mounted manual “On–Off” switch when there is  
incoming power.

OPERATION  
This chapter describes the function and operation of the Magnum DS8016 hubs.  
4.1  
Dual-Speed and Domain-Switched Functionality  
The Magnum DS8016-A handles the two different traffic domains separately  
(unless it is stacked with a DS8016-B), and the DS8016-E has only the 100Mb domain.  
Alternatively, the domain-switched DS8016-B provides switched (bridged) connectivity  
between the Ethernet (10Mb/s) and Fast Ethernet (100Mb/s) domains. It joins the two  
network domains for unified operation, and filters/ forwards packets in both directions to  
maximize bandwidth utilization and performance. Magnum DS8016s are hardware plug-and-  
play devices. There is no software set-up to be done at installation or for maintenance. The  
functions of the DS8016s are described in this manual.  
Each time a packet is received on one domain of the bridge module, the decision is  
taken to either to filter or forward the packet. Errored packets are always filtered. For good  
packets, the filter and forward decisions are made based on the destination address contained  
in each packet. If the destination address is on the same domain from which the packet  
originated, then it is filtered and not forwarded to the other domain. If the destination address  
is not found to be a match in the address table for the originating domain, then it is forwarded  
to the other domain. If it is a new node address coming in which the switch did not  
previously know about, it “learns” the new address and puts it in the correct port address  
table. See “Address Learning” for more details.

Address Learning (Address Table Maintenance)  
The Magnum DS8016-B bridge module is a state machine design which has a  
total address table capacity of 8K addresses. With a large address table, a Magnum DS8016  
can serve the needs of a medium-sized to large network. Table 4.1 shows what filter /  
forward action the Magnum DS8016-B will take in each packet-processing situation, and  
when a new node address will be added to the internal Address Table. When a new node-  
address packet comes into a port for the first time, then the new source address is “learned”  
at the same time that the packet is forwarded. After learning, subsequent packets from the  
same node address are routinely processed. The address tables are flushed periodically to  
update the network status and to purge any inactive stations from the tables of both domains.

Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed Stackable Hubs  
Installation and User Guide (07/06)  
By selectively forwarding packets from each domain to the other domain based  
on its switching (bridging) logic, the domain-switched Magnum DS8016-B increases the  
available bandwidth for the users on both sides of the network. As shown in Figure 4.1, it  
keeps the local traffic on each side contained, preventing unnecessary packets and bad  
packets from traveling to the other domain and using up bandwidth needlessly there. This  
results in more available network bandwidth on both sides and a throughput increase on for  
all users on both domains.  
4.  
Software Transparency  
The Magnum DS8016-A Dual-Speed Hubs, the DS8016-E 100Mb-only Hubs and  
the DS8016-B Dual-Speed Domain-Switched Hubs need no software set-up and are  
transparent to system and application software, including network management software.

4.2  
Auto-negotiation and speed-sensing  
All sixteen RJ-45 ports independently support auto-negotiation for shared  
10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX modes. When the ‘100’ LED is flashing, it means that the  
corresponding port is sending out auto-negotiation pulses on that port. When a LINK  
connection is made, the other device should respond and both sides should agree to the speed  
being signaled. The device connected, depending on what it is, will either signal that it is  
capable of 10Mb or 100Mb speeds. Silence means the port defaults to 10Mb.  
When the ‘100’ LED is steady ON, the port has auto-negotiated for 100Mb  
operation and is processing packets at 100Mb/s, When it is OFF, it is at 10Mb/s. If a  
DS8016 port is connected to a non-negotiating device, it will default to 10Mb speed. Since  
Magnum DS8016s are hubs, they always operate in the shared or half-duplex mode on all  
ports.  
General information -  
Auto-negotiation per-port for dual-speed hubs occurs when:  
the devices at both ends of the cable are capable of operation at either 10Mb or  
100Mb speed, and can send/receive auto-negotiation pulses, and . . .  
-- when the second of the two connected devices is powered up*, i.e., when  
LINK is established for a port, or  
-- when LINK is re-established on a port after being lost temporarily.  
NOTE – some NIC cards only auto-negotiate when the computer system that they are  
in is powered up. These are exceptions to the “negotiate at LINK – enabled” rule  
above, but may be occasionally encountered.

Magnum DS8016s each have one Up-link port, port # 1X, which can be used  
when port #1 is not connected. The Up-link port allows repeater-to-repeater connections  
without a special cross-over cable. It works the same for 10Mb or 100Mb connections.  
Use port “1” (or ports 2 thru 16) for straight-through twisted pair cabling from  
the DS8016 port to a user device, or the “1X” port for cross-over or up-link segment  
connections from the first DS8016 port to a repeater or hub or switch. Verify proper port  
connection by noting the port’s LINK/RX status, which is illuminated when a proper link  
is made and blinking when there is activity.  
Note: Port # 1 and Port # 1X, provided for RJ45 connections, are logically one port.  
Only one of these ports, either # 1 or # 1X may be used at one time simultaneously.

TROUBLESHOOTING  
All Magnum Ethernet products are designed to provide reliability and consistently  
high performance in all network environments. The installation of Magnum DS8016 10/100  
Dual Speed Stackable Hubs is a straightforward procedure (see INSTALLATION, Section  
2.6); the operation is also straightforward and is discussed in Section 4.  
Should problems develop during installation or operation, this section is intended  
to help locate, identify and correct these types of problems. Please follow the suggestions  
listed below prior to contacting your supplier. However, if you are unsure of the procedures  
described in this section or if the Magnum DS8016 10/100 Dual Speed Stackable Hub 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.  
3.  
4.  
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.)

Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed Stackable Hubs  
Installation and User Guide (07/06)  
APPENDIX B : Optional 48V DC Power Supply, Addendum  
B1.0  
SPECIFICATIONS - FOR DUAL-SPEED DS8016 HUBS  
Power Supply (Internal 48 VDC Option)  
DC Power Connector: 3 terminals: -“, “GND”, “+”  
Input Voltage: 36 - 70 VDC (auto-ranging)  
Power Consumption: Model DS8016: 25 watt typical, 40 watts max.  
With the exception of the power supply, all specifications and functions of  
Magnum DS80016-48VDC models are identical to those listed in Section 1.  
B2.0  
48V DC SOURCE OPTION, THEORY OF OPERATION  
The 48VDC power option is designed using diodes inside on each DC power input  
line behind the two external power connection terminals, so that the power from an external  
POWER SWITCH  
source can only flow into the hub. This  
HUB  
SUPPLY  
allows the hub to operate only whenever  
+
-

A-  
FUSE  
DC power is correctly applied to the two  
inputs. It protects the hub from incorrect  
DC input connections. An incorrect  
CHASSIS

GND  
polarity connection, for example, will neither effect the hub, nor its power supply internally,  
nor will it blow the fuse in the internal power supply.  
The power switch (included on premium-priced NEBS-certified units only) is used  
for powering the hub on and off when it is placed into or taken out of service.  
B3.0  
APPLICATIONS  
Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed Hubs are easily installed in a variety of applications  
where 48 VDC power is used as the primary power source. The 48VDC power configuration  
provides an Ethernet networking solution utilizing a special power supply in hubs with a  
proven track record.  
The solution is particularly useful in the telecommunication industry, where it is  
common for facilities to operate on 48VDC power. Such companies include regular and  
wireless telephone service providers, Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and other  
communication companies. In addition, many high availability equipment services, such as  
broadcasters, publishers, newspaper operations, brokerage firms and other facilities often use  
a battery backup system to maintain operations in the event of a power failure. It is also  
frequently used for computer system backup, management and operations monitoring  
equipment.

APPENDIX C: Optional 48V Dual-Source DC Power, Addendum  
C1.0  
SPECIFICATIONS - FOR MAGNUM DS8016 DUAL-SPEED HUBS  
Power Supply (Internal, 48VDC Dual-Source model)  
DC Power Connector: First Source: “A+”, “A-“, 2nd Source “B-“, “B+”  
GND: Terminal for “earth” or ground wire connection to the hub chassis  
Input:  
Two separate sources, each at 36 - 70 VDC (auto-ranging)  
Power Consumption: Model DS8016: 25 watt typical, 40 watts max.  
With the exception of the dual DC input power connections and the power supply, all  
specifications and configuration options for the Magnum DS8016-48VDC with this Dual-  
Source option are identical to those listed in the Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed Hubs  
Installation and User Guide, including Appendix A “Optional 48VDC Power”  
C2.0  
MAGNUM DS8016 (48VDC DUAL-SOURCE POWER OPTION)  
The hub models with the internal 48VDC Dual-Source power supply are designed  
for installations where a battery plant is the power source, and where two separate power  
sources are utilized in order to increase operational uptime and to simplify maintenance.  
The functionality of the Magnum DS8016-48VDC Dual-Source Option hubs are  
identical to the standard AC-powered models. All Port Module, SNMP and stacking options  
are available for configuration with Dual-Source Option units. Refer to the main sections of  
this Installation and User Guide for a detailed description of the Magnum DS8016 Hubs.  
C3.0  
DUAL-SOURCE OPTION, THEORY OF OPERATION  
The Dual-Source DC power option is designed using diodes inside of the hub on  
each DC power input line. A diode is placed  
in each of the four input lines (behind the  
four external power connection terminals) so  
that power from an external source can only  
flow into the hub. This allows the hub to  
operate whenever DC power is correctly  
applied to either or both of the two inputs.

Magnum DS8016 Dual-Speed Stackable Hubs  
Installation and User Guide (07/06)  
C4.0  
FEATURES AND BENEFITS OF THE DUAL-SOURCE DESIGN  
a) The hub can receive power from either input, “A” or “B”. The hub will normally draw  
its power from the DC source with the highest voltage (in the 36-70V range) at a given  
time.  
b) The hub will not allow power to flow from a higher voltage input to a lower voltage  
input, i.e. the two DC power sources are not mixed together by the hub.  
c) When one correct DC input is present, the hub will receive power if the other DC input  
is absent, or even if it is connected with reverse polarity or shorted or grounded.  
d) Reverse polarity connections, if they should accidentally occur on either input, will not  
damage the hub or power supply internally (nor will it blow the fuse in the internal  
power supply) because of the blocking action of the diodes. This is true even if one input  
connection is reversed while the hub is operating from the other source.  
e) The hub will not receive power (and will not work) when both inputs are simultaneously  
absent or are both incorrectly connected.  
f) This product shall be provided with a Listed fuse or circuit breaker, rated 5 A, in the  
supply circuit when connected to a 48 V centralized dc source.  
C5.0  
INSTALLATION  
This section describes the proper connection of the 48VDC dual source leads to the  
48VDC power terminal block on the Magnum DS8016 hub (shown in Figure C4.0).  
The 48VDC terminal block on the Magnum DS8016 is located on the right rear of  
the unit and is equipped with five (5) screw-down lead posts. The primary terminals are  
identified as positive (A+), negative (A-), and the secondary power terminals as negative (B-  
), positive(B+), and the chassis “earth” or ground (GND).  
Figure B5.0: 48V DC Dual-  
A+ A- B- B+

tightened.  
C5.1UL Requirements  
The following must be adhered to in order to conform to UL requirements:  
1. Minimum 14 AWG cable for connection to a Centralized DC power source.  
2. Fastening torque of the lugs on the terminal block: 9 inch pound max.  
3. Centralized DC Power Source cable securement, use at least four cable ties to  
secure the cable to the rack at least 4 inches apart with the first one located within
