Cables

The cables in this server is just like that of any standard PC expect that 68
pin Wide-SCSI cables are provided for 50 pin or 68 pin SCSI devices used
in server systems. Your PC may use SCSI devices but are typically 50 pins.
Because signals become weaker over distance, cable quality is more impor-
tant in large chassis such as the one used in this server.

Cable Connections

The cables connect to the motherboard as shown. The P2B-DS includes
onboard SCSI with 68 pin and 50 pin SCSI connectors. RAID connections
require the ASUS PCI-DA2100A RAID card.
