Cabling a Fibre Channel PX720 Library
Use the following procedure to connect the SCSI jumper cables, terminators,
and Ethernet cables to the tape drive cluster(s) and FC470(s).
• SCSI connectors 0 through 3 on the first FC470 are used to connect to tape
drives 0 through 3 and the library SCSI HBA.
• SCSI connectors 0 through 3 on the second FC470 are used to connect to
tape drives 4 through 7, if present.
• SCSI connectors 0 through 3 on the third FC470 are used to connect tape
drives 8 through 11.
• SCSI connectors 0 through 3 on the fourth FC470 are used to connect tape
drives 12 through 15.
• SCSI connectors 0 through 3 on the fifth FC470 are used to connect tape
drives 16 through 19.
Secure the SCSI cables from the FC470(s) to the card cage in the cable clamp
located on the right-hand side of the card cage. After you have completed the
SCSI connections from the FC470 bridges to the tape drives, close the back
access door on the library.
To cable a FC470 bridge to the tape drive cluster(s):
1 To connect the SCSI cables from the FC470 to the tape drives, see
and figure 28.
2 Route an Ethernet cable up through the base of the library and connect
the front Ethernet port located on the right side of the cabinet controller to
the local network (see
3 Connect an Ethernet cable from each tape drive cluster (E3) to it's
corresponding FC470.
