Exabyte EXB-8500c 8mm manual Power Cable Connector, December, EXB-8500/EXB-8500c

Note: The power supply returns are connected to the chassis, so you cannot isolate logic common ground from chassis ground.

Power Cable Connector

The tape drive operates from standard +5 VDC and +12 VDC supply voltages; it cannot use external AC power. Safety agency certification requires that the supplied voltage be from a Safety Extra-Low Voltage source (per IEC 950). Refer to Appendix B for tape drive power specifications.

CAUTION

The tape drive does not provide any overvoltage or over current protection. For this reason, be certain that the power is off before connecting the tape drive to a power supply.

The power connector used in the tape drive is compatible with power connectors used for standard 5.25-inch devices. To connect the tape drive to a power cable, use an AMP 1-480424-0 series or equivalent female connector. For information about the specific power connector pin assignments, refer to the EXB-8500 and EXB-8500c Product Specification.
