SCSI terminator specifications
The SCSI terminator must match the SCSI bus configuration (LVD or
HVD). In addition, all termination must be external. Do not use internal
terminators to terminate the library or the tape drives.
To ensure proper performance of the library and tape drives, ADIC
recommends one of the following external terminators:
Differential wide external terminator:
S LVD — ADIC p/n 61-3020-02
S HVD — ADIC p/n 61-1140-01
SCSI cable specifications
The following tables list the recommendations for external SCSI cables
for the library.
Use cables that conform to SCSI-3 specifications.
Cable length for differential configurations
The total length of all internal and external cables on the HVD SCSI bus
should not exceed 25.0 meters (82 feet).
The total length of all internal and external cables on the LVD SCSI bus
should not exceed 12.0 meters (41 feet).
Determining the cable length for each bus
1. For each bus, add the lengths of all external SCSI cables.
