The #6501 provides attachment for the following tape devices:
• 3490E-C11/C22/C1A/C2A ½-inch Cartridge Tape Subsystem with #5040
• 3490E-E01/E11 ½-inch Cartridge Tape Subsystem
• 3490E-F00/F01/F11/F1A ½-inch Cartridge Tape Subsystem
• 3570-B00/B01/B02/B11/B12/B1A Cassette Tape Subsystem
• 3570-C00/C01/C02/C11/C12/C1A Cassette Tape Subsystem
• 3575-L06/L12/L18/L24/L32 ½-inch Cartridge Tape Subsystem

#5040 or one or two 3490E-F1A)
• 3494-L12 ½-inch Cartridge Tape Library Control Unit Frame (one or two 3590-B1A)
• 3494-D10 ½-inch Cartridge Tape Library Device Frame (one 3490E-C1A/C2A with #5040

The #6501 requires one I/O card slot and can support up to two tape units per one controller.
The #6501 has two ports, but can support up to four devices in total for the two ports. Tape
