Fibre Channel Speed and Topology

7

Although Fibre Channel DLT-S4 tape drives will auto-negotiate the speed 

and topology, you may override the automatic selections by placing 

jumpers on the Fibre Channel jumper block at the rear of the tape drive.
If you decide it is necessary to change the tape drive’s speed or topology, 

use your fingers to move the jumpers to the pattern corresponding to the 

speed or topology you want. Using this jumper block is optional.

See:

•

 for the Fibre Channel jumper block location

•

 for the empty jumper block that you use to set the speed 

and topology

•

 for the various jumper setting combinations

Speed and Topology Jumper 
Block

The tape drive only checks the jumpers at a power cycle. To 

change the speed or topology configurations after installation, 

turn off the tape drive, move the jumpers as needed, and then 

turn on the tape drive.
