Standard ECMA-209
Data Interchange on 12,7 mm 128-Track
Magnetic Tape Cartridges - DLT3 Format
(December 1994)
This Ecma Standard specifies the physical and magnetic characteristics
of a 12,7 mm wide, 128-track magnetic tape cartridge, to enable
interchangeability of such cartridges. It also specifies the quality
of the recorded signals, a format - called Digital Linear Tape
3 (DLT 3) - and a recording method.
Together with a labelling standard, for instance Standard
ECMA-13 for Magnetic Tape Labelling, it allows full data interchange
by means of such magnetic tape cartridges.
