increases cartridge life and supports heavy duty-cycle, 7x24
environments, along with compatibility with DLTtape IV media.
New, Rugged Media Cartridge
The Super DLTtape I cartridge has a new, more rugged design for
greater durability. (See Figure 17-7.) The Super DLTtape I cartridge
features a thicker internal circular wall surrounding the media and
more structural ribbing to increase overall cartridge resiliency and
reduce potential damage resulting from a drop. New, wear-resistant
materials reduce the potential for debris generation and increase the
life of the cartridge.
Modular Design
Quantum engineers have built the Super DLTtape System in five dis-
tinct modules:
•
TCM - Tape Control Module
•
DCM - Data Control Module
•
FPM - Front Panel Module
•
EIM - Electronics and Interface Module
•
CTM - Cartridge Tape Module
