Preparing the Library for Operation

Connecting SCSI Cables (ESL9326DLX and ESL9326SL)
Looking from the rear of the library, connect the SCSI cables and jumpers as shown in
Figure 2-4. The recommended cabling configurations are for a 16-drive library.
NOTE:
ESL9326 Series libraries are equipped with internal SCSI cables and terminators in place
for a two drive per SCSI bus configuration. Additional SCSI jumper cables and terminators are
supplied in the library Accessory Kit to allow up to four drives per SCSI bus.
