5.1Fibre Channel Option (FCO) Type B Installation Considerations

5.1.1Operating Environment

A TLS with the Fibre Channel Option is designed to operate in an ambient environ- ment from 41oF to 95oF (5oC to 35oC), 20% to 80% relative humidity, and at altitudes from -1000 to +10,000 feet. Moisture must not be allowed to condense inside the sys- tem.

5.1.2Ventilation

When selecting a location for the TLS, be sure to provide sufficient space behind the unit to allow for cable connections. Also, be sure nothing will block the air intake at the inlet air filters or the top air vent slots.

5.2FCO Type B Interconnect Cabling

The Type B Fibre Channel Option bridge/router is factory installed on the top of TLS- 412xxx, TLS-58xxx, TLS-68xxx and TLS-88xxx libraries. All the bridge/router inter- connect and power cables are accessed at the rear of the unit.
