Second Tape Drive
(Optional)
The library is shipped with one tape drive installed. If desired, you can install a
second tape drive. Contact Exabyte for tape drive upgrade kits
Ethernet Cable A shielded Ethernet cable is provided with the library. You can use this cable to
connect the library to an Ethernet network for remote monitoring, management,
firmware upgrades, and diagnostics.
If you want to provide your own Ethernet cable, use a shielded Category 5
(10/100BaseT connection) data-grade cable or similar Category 5 cable that is
compliant with EIA/TIA 568. The library’s Ethernet port connector is a
pin-through-hole RJ-45 shielded connector.
To comply with the regulations and standards listed in
Appendix A , all Ethernet
cables used with the library must be properly shielded.
Serial Cable
(Optional)
If you want to connect to the library’s Console interface for firmware upgrades
and diagnostics, use a straight-through 9-pin serial cable (not a null modem cable).
Bar Code Labels Sample bar code labels are included with the library. If you want to prepare your
own labels, refer to the Exabyte Bar Code Label Specification for LTO Ultrium
Cartridges on the documentation CD.
Cartridges One or more data cartridges and a cleaning cartridge may be included. Use only
data and cleaning cartridges designed specifically for LTO Ultrium tape drives:
ƒ
The LTO Ultrium 1 tape drive uses Ultrium 1 data cartridges, which are black
(100 GB, native).
ƒ
The LTO-2 tape drive supports Ultrium 1 data cartridges and Ultrium 2 data
cartridges, which are purple (200 GB, native).
ƒ
The LTO-3 tape drive supports Ultrium 3 data cartridges, which are slate blue
(400 GB, native). It can also read and write Ultrium 2 cartridges and read
Ultrium 1 cartridges.
ƒ
LTO Ultrium cleaning cartridges.
For maximum capacity, use Ultrium 2 data cartridges with the LTO-2 tape drive
and Ultrium 3 data cartridges with the LTO-3 tape drive.
You can purchase LTO Ultrium ExaPaks (7 data cartridges in a cartridge magazine)
from Exabyte.
