SCSI SWITCH (FOR AS/400
®
)
Compatible Racks for the SCSI Switch
The SCSI Switch, which is in a self-contained module, should be mounted in
the same rack that your tape drive is mounted in. Usually, you will already
have this rack if you already have a tape drive. If you need to order a rack, the
following are compatible with both the tape drive and the SCSI Switch:
• IBM 9309 System Rack (SC9125)
• IBM 9309 System Unit/9332 Rack (SC9126)
• IBM 9309 I/O Expansion Rack (SC9130)

Unpacking and Packing
The SCSI Switch (for AS/400
®
) Subsystem is packaged in electrically
conductive containers. Save all packing material in case you need to ship,
store, or move the units later.
After you remove the SCSI Switch from the container, inspect it for
damage. If the equipment is damaged, immediately contact your dealer.
NOTE
Static electricity is generated by common activities such as walking
across a carpet, transporting items in plastic containers, and handling
synthetic materials. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) may result in
degraded reliability or failures.
Tools Required
The only tools you need to support the SCSI Switch can be found in a
standard tool kit:
• a Philips head screwdriver or common screwdriver
• a pair of pliers
• an adjustable wrench
