8U rack must be installed in the field.

Additional I/O port magazines and covers are available
for long-term cartridge storage.

The accessory kit includes the appropriate power cord
for the input voltage and current.
Door keys

The accessory kit includes keys to unlock the doors. The
same key unlocks all doors.
Calibration cartridge

is required to calibrate the tape drive locations.
Stylus for touch screen

The accessory kit includes a stylus, which can be used to
control the touch screen.
Data and cleaning cartridges
Customer
Refer to the software application and tape drive
documentation for data and cleaning cartridge
requirements. In addition to any cleaning cartridges
required for each logical library, four cleaning cartridges
are needed for the system-reserved slots.
Barcode labels
Customer
Refer to Qualstar Product Information Note 040,
“Barcode Label Information and Specifications.”
SCSI cables
Customer
Refer to the installation plan to determine how many
SCSI cables are required. The tape drives use HD68
connectors, while the HBAs in the XLS use VHDCI
connectors.
Uninterruptible power supply
(UPS) and UPS cable
Customer
The battery backup module in the power/PC bay
provides enough backup power to safely shut down the
XLS if an unexpected power failure occurs. However, the
battery module does not provide adequate power to
protect the tape drives. For this reason, Qualstar
recommends that you connect the XLS to an external
UPS.
Note:
Be sure that the UPS uses
“APC Smart Signaling”
protocol and use a UPS Communication Cable
Smart Signaling (part number 940-0024)
Fibre Channel cables
Customer
Refer to the installation plan to determine how many
Fibre Channel cables are required. The tape drives and
the HBAs in the XLS both use multimode 62.5/125 fiber
optic patch cables with duplex LC connectors.
Rack-mounted equipment
Customer
You must provide your own equipment for the
equipment rack.
