34、tically encoded data on a 0.5 inch (12.65 mm) wide magnetic tape cartridgeto allow parties that comply with these requirements to interchange information reli-ably. The standard applies to 128-track, 62 500 bpi (2 460 bpmm), 2,7 RLL recordingmode tape drives that operate in the streaming mode. This

35、format is called DLT 3-XT.The advantage of using the format described in this standard is that it provides 1.5times the data capacity when compared to ANSI X3.282-1996.The impetus to develop this standard was the requirement for higher capacity tapedrives to provide backup for the increasingly great

36、er capacities of the fixed diskdrives used with information processing systems.This standard was developed by Technical Committee NCITS B5 on Digital MagneticTape. This group consists of specialists experienced and qualified in the recording ofdigital information on magnetic tape. In the development

37、 of this standard, careful con-sideration was given to current practices, existing equipment and supplies, achievingthe broadest possible acceptance, and providing a basis for future improvement inthe use of the medium.This standard contains eight annexes. Annexes A to G are part of this standard an

38、dare normative. Annexes H to L are informative and are not considered part of thisstandard.Suggestions for improvement of this standard will be welcome. They should be sentto National Committee for Information Technology Standards (NCITS), ITI, 1250 EyeStreet, NW, Suite 200, Washington DC 20005-3922

Introduction1.1 ScopeThis standard specifies the physical and magnetic characteristics of a 0.5 in (12.65 mm) wide 128-track magnetic tapecartridge, to enable physical interchange of such cartridges. It also specifies the quality of the reco

47、rded signals, aformat - called Digital Linear Tape 3 Extended (DLT 3-XT) - and a recording method, thereby allowing datainterchange between drives.The use of a labeling standard such as American National Standard for Information Technology - File structure andlabelling of magnetic tapes for informat

48、ion interchange, ANSI X3.27-1987(R1995), will support data interchangebetween data-processing systems.Note - The users attention is called to the possibility that compliance with this standard mayrequire use of an invention covered by patent rights.By publication of this standard, no position is tak

49、en with respect to the validity of this claim or of any patentrights in connection therewith. The patent holder has, however, filed a statement of willingness to grant alicense under these rights on reasonable and non-discriminatory terms and conditions to applicants desiring toobtain such a license. Details may be obtained from the publisher.1.2 PurposeThis standard defines the requirements and supporting test methods necessary to ensure information interchange atacceptable performance levels. It is distinct from a specification in that it delineates a minimum of restrictionsconsist
