(221L-FC)
This section provides instructions for connecting the 221L-FC library and its
tape drive(s) to a Fibre Channel network.
Figure 2-11 shows the back panel of the 221L-FC. The library has one
integrated dual single-channel LC optical fiber connector, Port A, which is
used to connect the library to a single loop on a Fibre Channel network. Each
tape drive also includes one integrated dual LC optical fiber connector, Port A,
for connecting the tape drive to a Fibre Channel network. The library can be
on the same loop as the tape drive(s) or on a separate loop.
