5.9  3216 Tape Controller 
The 3216 tape controller manages data path operations for the 
T16/5155/5159 DLTtape Drive FRU. The controller consists of 
two boards: a logic board (LB) and a backplane interconnect card 
(BIC). Access the logic board from the front of a system or I/O 
cabinet. Access the BIC from the rear of a system or I/O cabinet. 
The 3216 tape controller supports a fiber-optic link of up to two 
kilometers long between the controller BIC and the tape drive FRU. 
The 3216 tape controller supports a maximum of two drives. 
Figure 5-3 shows the 3216 logic board and fiber-optic BIC.
