Ac Power Cables; Library Network And Tape Drive Cables; Door Cable Routing Cutouts - Oracle StorageTek SL3000 Manual

When routing cables, make sure to include locations for power, drive interface, library
control, and Ethernet cables. As a best practice, route power cables through one
cut-out and signal cables through another cut-out.

AC Power Cables

SL3000 libraries require that you select one of the following single phase AC power
options for the Base module and DEM:
110 VAC, 50/60 Hz, at 20 Amps (range: 100–127 VAC, 50–60 Hz, 16 Amps)
■
240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, at 30 Amps (range: 200–240 VAC, 50–60 Hz, 24 Amps)
■
Make sure to plan for the locations of power cables and list the locations for their
associated circuit breakers. Cables must be ordered for the appropriate power
configuration. Order one power cord per PDU installed:
N+1 — one power cord for the Base module and an additional power cord for the
■
DEM (if installed).
2N or 2N+1 — two power cords for the Base module and two additional power
■
cords for the DEM (if installed).

Library Network and Tape Drive Cables

The library can be used in a 62.5-micron-cable Storage Area Network (SAN). However,
the cable that connects the library to the network must be a 50-micron cable. The
maximum distances supported on a Fibre Channel link are determined by the link
speed, the type of fiber (50 or 62.5 micron), and the device to which the library is
attached. Refer to your switch vendor to determine what is supported in your storage
area network.
The typical support distances for the cables are:
4 Gbps = up to 70 m (230 ft) for 62.5-micron, 150 m (492 ft) for 50-micron
■
2 Gbps = up to 150 m (492 ft) for 62.5-micron, 300 m (984 ft) for 50-micron
■
1 Gbps = up to 175 m (574 ft) for 62.5-micron, 500 m (1640 ft) for 50-micron
■
If your library attaches to a host bus adapter (HBA), refer to the documentation for the
HBA for the supported cable distances. For a list of cables, see
If your library will support encryption, refer to the Oracle Key Manager Overview and
Planning Guide on OTN.
