Attach USB cable
Decide which cable to use
Two USB cables are supplied with your tape drive because there are several options for connecting
the tape drive to your server:
• To an internal 4-pin USB port on your server’s system board; this option uses the special, 4-pin
USB cable and is appropriate for many HP ProLiant servers
• To an internal standard USB port, possibly on your server’s system board or on an internal USB
card; this option uses the standard USB cable
• To an external USB port on your server; this option uses the Cable Routing kit and the standard
USB cable
To check whether your server has an internal USB port:
• Look at the diagram on the inside of the side panel of the server to establish whether the server
has an internal USB port and its location. The internal USB port may have a 4-pin or a standard
USB connector.
• Many ProLiant servers have a 4-pin USB connector on the system board, which may be
orientated vertically or horizontally.
