Introduction
The
VESA Host Adapter is an intelligent VL-Bus
to SCSI bus master host adapter based on a BusLogic-designed,
ASIC technology. It provides a high-performance interconnection be-
tween the Video Electronics Standards Association’s
bus and up
to seven Small Computer System Interface
peripheral devices. The
offers device driver support for major industry standard
operating sys terns.
host adapters offer exceptionally high product reliability due to
reduced component count and lower power
Minimized
command overhead results in faster command execution. Adapter BIOS
supports up to 8
capacity per disk.
The
is the same as the
but without the floppy connector.
For the remainder of this manual, BT-445C refers to both models except as
noted.
Hardware Requirements
Your VESA computer needs:
n
One available expansion VL slot for each
being installed
n
At least one 3.5” floppy drive
n
power for an internal 3.5” SCSI drive or an external subsystem
You’ll need the following cables:
A
cable with a high density connector to connect the BT-445C to
external devices
