The SAITe1300-F is equipped with an interface that
complies with the Fibre Channel standards with the
following specifications.
• Short-wave laser
•200 MB/sec
• Duplex LC Fibre Channel connectors
The equipment (HBA, hub, switch, etc.) to be connected
to the SAITe1300-F must be of the same type.
Use an optical fiber cable with the following
specifications.
• Duplex LC Fibre Channel connectors
• 50/125 µm multimode optical fiber cable
Caution
• If your interface and optical fiber cable are different
types, the unit may not operate correctly when
connected.
• Turn off the unit when connecting or disconnecting a
cable to the fibre channel connector. Failing to do so
may result in damage.
• Never touch the fibre channel connector of the unit
when the unit is on. Doing so may result in damage.
Turning On the Unit

Press the power switch on the front panel.
The POWER indicator lights green and the unit
starts.
Then four status indicators change as follows as the
unit is starting.
• All the indicators light green for about half a
second.
• They then repeatedly flash yellow form left to
right for about 3 seconds, indicating that the unit
is performing a self-diagnostic.
• Finally, all the indicators go out. (If there is a
cartridge in the unit, the TAPE MOTION
indicator lights green or yellow.)
Caution
• If the POWER indicator flashes when the unit starts,
the cooling fan of the unit may be malfunctioning. If
this is the case, verify that the cooling fan on the rear
is operating normally. If it is not, contact your Sony
service center.
• If the status indicators do not behave as described
above, refer to the “Operating Instructions” (PDF).
