5.4Cabling for TLS-58xxx, 68xxx and 88xxx Libraries

Prior to installing a Fibre Channel Option on TLS-58xxx, 68xxx or 88xxx libraries the tape drive assemblies may need to be installed in the library and the drives will need to be cabled as shown in section 4. Refer to the Installation section in the TLS- 5000/6000/8000 Installation and Operation Manual (Qualstar document number 501450) for details about tape drive assembly preparation, enabling SCSI termination power and installation.

Note that all TLS-58xxx, 68xxx and 88xxx models are shipped from the factory with- out the SCSI interconnect cables or terminators installed. Table 5-3represents the preferred cabling for a library with eight tape drives.
