Why LIB81?
AIT tape drives have proven incredibly popular
with users, with more than 650,000 drives
shipped since the first release in 1996. These
drives underpin the security of IT systems
around the world.
Optimum Rack System
Many offices that are packed with proliferating
PCs can be streamlined by introducing the
rack-mountable AIT tape library LIB81
The compact AIT format frees up office space
with its high-density data storage and offers
great investment returns as the storage volume
increases.
There is a growing demand for efficient
stacking of servers, storage, and network
equipment in 19 inch racks to reduce TCO by
maximising system expandability, use of
space, and ease of maintenance.
Simple Operation from Web Browser or 
Front Panel
System set-up and monitoring can be carried
out easily from a web browser on a client PC,
or from the front panel. The tape cartridge is
controlled at high speed with supreme
reliability thanks to the R-MIC reader installed
by default in the AIT3 tape drives, facilitating
recovery in the event of a system crash.
