Installation 9

Installing SCSI Cables, Jumpers, and Terminators

Follow the steps on the following pages to connect your T5 to one or more SCSI busses. This involves

installing SCSI cables, jumpers (daisy chain cables), and terminator(s) onto the SCSI I/O connectors on the

rear panel of the T5.

Note

The interface cable(s) must be shielded – ADIC can supply you with the correct

type(s).

The T5 Enclosure can contain up to five SCSI DLT tape drives. Listed below are the SCSI configurations

supported by the T5 Enclosure:

• Each DLT drive can be connected to a separate SCSI bus, or from two to five drives can be daisy-

chained together and connected to the same SCSI bus.

• Each SCSI bus can be either single-ended or differential. They must each match the SCSI host they are

connected to.

• Termination can be active or passive. ADIC recommends using active termination on a single-ended

bus.

• All termination must be external. Never use internal terminators to terminate the drives.

SCSI Cables and Jumpers

1. Attach one end of the SCSI interface cable(s) to the connector(s) shown on the rear of your T5

Enclosure. Press firmly and secure the jackscrews.

2. Attach the other end of the SCSI interface cable(s) to the external connector(s) on the SCSI interface

card(s). Press firmly and secure the jackscrews.

Note

The jackscrews at both ends of the SCSI cable must be securely fastened in

order for the drives to communicate properly with the host computer.

3. If daisy-chaining two or more drives together for connection to a single SCSI bus, attach one end of the

SCSI jumper cable to one of the drives.

4. Attach the other end of the SCSI jumper cable to the external connector on an adjacent drive.
