Introduction
Embedded Fibre Channel Board
Some models of the MSL5000 series libraries ship with an optional embedded Fibre
Channel board in the slot next to the library controller board.
This board enables connectivity between MSL5000 series libraries and Fibre Channel
based storage area networks (SANs), allowing them to be attached to either a Fibre
Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) or switched fabric. See Appendix F for additional
information on configuring and using the optional Fibre Channel board.

•
Viewing window—lets you visually check the internal operations of the library.
•
