Drive Module Site Preparation Guide 5
Preparatory Tasks
Before starting the installation process, you should complete the following tasks:
Make sure that the installation site meets all area, environmental, and power
requirements discussed in this book.
Order all necessary equipment and kits, including:
Hosts and host adapters
Interface cables
Mounting hardware and blank panel kits (for rackmount installations only)
Install all applicable hosts, host adapters, and command modules.
If you are preparing a rackmount installation, move the rackmount cabinet to its final
location and install all optional equipment (support rails, panels, command modules,
etc.). Route all power and auxiliary cables in the cabinet.
Attach the interface cables to the appropriate command modules and route them to the
area in which you intend to install the drive modules.
Tools and Equipment You May Need
To complete the installation procedure, you need the following items:
Two power cords (shipped with unit)
Screwdrivers and wrenches (various sizes)
Antistatic protection (such as a grounded wrist strap)
Interface cables, terminators, and tie wraps
Mounting hardware (for rackmount installations only)
Table or cart (optional)

Area Requirements
The floor space at the installation site must provide:
Enough stability to support the weight of the drive module or E2400 command
module, and associated equipment (see "Weights" on this page)
Sufficient space to install, operate, and service the drive module or E2400 command
module (see "Dimensions" on page 12 and "Airflow" on page 16)
Weights
The drive modules or E2400 command modules total weight depends on the number of
components installed in the chassis. Refer to the following weight tables for information
on each model:
E3300 drive module see Table 2 on page 7
FC-1 10x drive module see Table 3 on page 8
E2400 10x command module see Table 4 on page 9
FC-1 14x drive module see Table 5 on page 10

Drive Module Site Preparation Guide 19
Site Wiring Requirements
Review the following information when preparing the drive module or E2400 command
module installation site.
Earth ground The unit must be properly grounded, including an earth ground
conductor on the AC power source.
Circuit overloading Make sure the power circuits and associated circuit breakers in
the cabinet and building provide sufficient power and overload protection. To prevent
possible damage to the unit, isolate its power source from large switching loads (such as
air conditioning motors).
Power interruptions The drive module or E2400 command module will withstand
the following applied voltage interruptions:
Input transient: 50% of nominal voltage
Duration: one half cycle
Minimum frequency: once every 10 seconds
Power failures Once power is restored after a complete power failure, the unit
automatically performs a power-up recovery sequence without operator intervention.
Site Wiring and Voltages
The drive modules and E2400 command module use wide-ranging, redundant power
supplies that automatically match voltages to the AC power source. They are a 120/220
VAC, 50/60 Hz units that meet standard voltage requirements for both domestic (USA)
and international (outside USA) operation. They use standard industrial wiring with a
line-to-neutral or line-to-line power connections (Table 10).

Drive Module Site Preparation Guide 21
Drive Module Power Requirements
E3300 Drive Module
The AC power source must provide the correct voltage, current, and frequency specified
on the manufacturers nameplate. Internal AC power units for rackmount cabinets must
be able to handle the power requirements for this unit (Table 11).
Power Connections
The drive module uses two AC power cords (one for each power supply). In order to meet
power requirements and maintain power redundancy, you must connect the drive module
to either 90-136 VAC or 198-257 VAC, 15 A circuits as described below.
Redundant power, 90-136 V Connect as follows:
If three or less drive modules are connected to a command module, use two 90-136
V, 15 A circuits. Connect one power supply from each drive module to one circuit
and the other power supplies to the second circuit.
If more than three drive modules are connected to a command module, use four
90-136 V, 15 A circuits. Connect one half of the drive modules to two circuits and
the remaining drive modules to the other two circuits. Make sure that each drive
module connects to two different circuits (one per power supply).
Redundant power, 198-257 V Use two 198 V-257 V, 15 A circuits. Connect one power
supply from each drive module to one circuit and the other power supply to the second
circuit.

Power Cord Routing
Some rackmount cabinets have two AC distribution boxes. Each AC distribution box has
its own power cord. Because of limited space inside the cabinet, it may be easier to connect
and route power cords before installing the support rails and command module. You may
connect power to a command module in a rackmount cabinet in three ways:
Redundant power to cabinet and drive module Connect the AC boxes in the cabinet
to two, independent, external power sources. Connect one power cord from each drive
module to each AC box in the cabinet.
Redundant power to cabinet; non-redundant to drive module Connect the AC boxes
in the cabinet to two, independent, external power sources. Connect both power cords
from the drive module to one AC box in the rackmount cabinet.
Non-redundant power to cabinet and drive module Connect both AC boxes in the
cabinet to a single power source. Connect both power cords from the drive module to
one or both AC boxes in the rackmount cabinet.

Power Cord Routing
The drive module and command module use two AC power cords (one for each power
supply). You must have an independent AC power source for each power supply in the
drive module and command module in order to maintain redundancy. This applies to
both deskside and rackmount models.
Some rackmount cabinets have two AC distribution boxes. Each AC distribution box has
its own power cord. To ensure redundancy, connect the AC boxes in the cabinet to two
independent power sources. Then, connect one power cord from each drive module or
command module to each AC box in the cabinet (Figure 5). Because of limited space inside
the cabinet, it may be easier to connect and route power cords before installing the support
rails and drive module (or command module).

Drive Module Site Preparation Guide 27
Drive Module Cable Requirements
E3300 Interface Cables
The E3300 drive module has two SCSI connectors. To connect the drive module to a
SYM1000E command module, you must use 68-pin, VHDCI (very high density cable
interface) LVD, Ultra SCSI-2 cables.
The maximum length for any SCSI, 68-pin HD cable is 25 m (82 ft.) or 12 m (39 ft.) for
VHDCI cable. The total length includes both internal and external cabling. The SCSI
cabling inside this drive module is approximately 0.1 m (4 in.) for the host bus. Table 14
lists the SCSI cables that you can use on this drive module.
SCSI Terminators
If you are installing the drive module as the last device on a SCSI bus, you must install a 16-
bit terminator on the OUT connector. Every drive module shipped from the factory
includes 16-bit terminators.

FC-1 10x, E2400 10x, FC-1 14x, and E2400 14x Interface
Cables
The drive modules and command modules support Fibre Channel connections to the
command modules. They have four gigabit interface converter (GBIC) connectors, two on
each ESM or controller. The connectors may be fiber optic or copper. The type of
connector depends on what type of drive interface you ordered and what type of cable you
are using to attach the drive module or command module to the command module.
If you ordered optical GBIC connectors, you will need fiber optic cable. If you ordered
copper GBIC connectors, you will need copper wire cable. Table 15 lists the types and
lengths of cable available from your local dealer.
