2  If your library includes SCSI tape drives connect the SCSI cables 

to the connectors on the drive sled. See the Installation and User 
Guide for installation requirements when using more than 2 SCSI 
drives. 

a.  Connect a jumper cable between the top SCSI connector of 

the bottom drive and the bottom SCSI connector of the drive 
above it. Repeat this step for all drives on the SCSI bus. 
Secure the cable with the thumbscrews on the connectors. 

b.  Terminate the last device on the SCSI bus with the 

appropriate SCSI terminator. 

c.  Connect a cable between the first drive on the SCSI bus and 

the host. Note that there are limitations to the length of the 
SCSI cable. In a typical installation, the cable length should 
not exceed 9 meters / 30 feet.
