➤Important If you have an Exabyte 440 or Exabyte 480 with Eliant 820 tape drives and the library is not the last device on the SCSI bus, you may need to install ferrite clamps on a SCSI cable to maintain compliance with the CISPR 22 Class B standard. If necessary, ferrite clamps are provided with the library; see the instructions packaged with the clamps for more information.

To avoid damaging the tape drives, make sure the tape drives and library are powered off when you connect the library to the SCSI bus.
