Channel attachments

The NPS/IPS printing system conforms to IBM standards and requirements for any channel-attached

printer. When you channel-attach your printer, keep the following in mind:

•Channel length is usually determined by the length of the cables, the number of devices on the channel, and the number of connections in the cable itself (for example, connecting two cables to each other).

•Subtract 15 feet from the total allowable cable length for any device attached to the channel or for any connection of two cables.

•IBM channel cable lengths are as follows:

–Gray: 200 feet / 61 m (with one device, 185 feet / 56 m)

–Blue: 400 feet / 122 m (with one device, 385 feet / 117 m)

For further information regarding IBM channel connections, refer to the following IBM manuals:

•IBM System 360 and System 370 Input-output Interface Channel to Control Unit OEM Information (#GA22-6974- 3825)

•Page Printer Product Description (#G544-3482)
