6 Connecting the cables (Fibre Channel library)
For the Fibre Channel 430M-FC, connect the optical fiber cable as follows:
1. Remove the protective plug from the optical fiber connector on the new
tape drive, if present.
2. Attach an optical cable from the Fibre Channel hub or switch to the Fibre
Channel connector on the new tape drive, as shown in the following
figure.
Note: You can use the optical cable provided in the kit, or you can use
your own cable. Make sure that the cable is compatible with
the GBIC on the tape drive and on the hub or switch.
3. Reconnect the power cord to the library, then power on the library. The
library automatically calibrates the position of the new tape drive.
