Power Cords
If the power supply fails, it is not available as a subassembly. The tape drive CRU
must be replaced.
Power Cords
Each tape drive CRU comes with a 4.5-meter (15-foot) AC power cord (two cords
maximum for each module). One end of the power cord plugs into the socket near the
AC power switch at the rear of the tape drive CRU. The other end of the power cord is
routed through the riser extrusion channel to the floor and then to the power source.
See Connecting and Routing the AC Power Cords on page 3-26. Table 3-7 shows the
current and voltage ratings of AC power cords available for the tape drive CRU.
Stack Height
Peripheral devices installed in a modular storage system are subject to height
restrictions to ensure safe installation and operation. Figure 3-3 shows a full stack
consisting of three modules on a riser. Level A is for disk drives and levels B, C, and D
are for tape drives. Level A doesn’t have any tape drives installed because it is very
inconvenient to operate a tape unit at that height.
