Connecting the Cables
DLT-S4 Product Manual 95
Connecting the Cables 11
Connect the SAS and power cables as follows:
1 Ensure that both the tape drive and computer are turned off.
2 Insert the SAS cable into the SAS port on the rear of the tape drive
(see figure 34
).
3 Insert the other end of the SAS cable into the SAS port on the host
computer.
4 Locate an available DC power cable in the host computer and attach
it to the power connector on the rear panel of the tape drive (see
figure 37
). The connector is keyed, preventing improper connection.
(See Power Connector Pin Assignments
on page 46 for power pin
number assignments and signal names.)
5 Check all the cable and termination connections to ensure that they
are attached correctly, seated firmly, and secured.
Note: If you are connecting several devices to the system,
connect only the tape drive to the host computer at this
time. Finish the installation procedure and confirm that
the host computer and tape drive are communicating
correctly before adding additional devices (see
Confirming the Installation
on page 96).
