Overview

1-2 Sixth Edition 95741

Host Interfaces

The 9840 Tape Drive interfaces with Fibre Channel and SCSI hosts. The drive

ships with a factory installed interface card that is not to be changed in the field

or at customer sites.

• The Fibre-Channel (FC) configuration of the 9840 Tape Drive has dual fiber-

optic ports to allow for point-to-point, arbitrated-loop (including redundant-

loop), and fabric topology. The FC interface for the 9840 Tape Drive uses

Fibre Channel protocol for SCSI (FCP-2).

• The SCSI interface card (ASIA—Application Specific Interface Adapter) has

only one port. The card can be programmed to different interface

specifications in the field from the drive operator panel.

Configurations

The drive is usually a component in a subsystem assembly that consists of the

drive, a power supply, and enclosures or trays, depending on the installation

environment. Refer to Table 1-1 for specific 9840 Tape Drive configurations and

interfaces.

Depending on the installation, the drive and power supply may be separated or

combined in an assembly. The FRUs (drive and power supply) may be attached

to a tray or installed within an enclosure.
