SCSI Connectors
Your server comes with a 16-bit UltraSCSI controller on the system board, which
provides two independent SCSI channels. This controller has two 68-pin, shielded,
high-density connectors: one internal, on the controller, and one external, on the
back of the server. You can use these connectors to install an additional internal
SCSI device in your server or to attach up to fifteen external SCSI devices to your
server.
Internal SCSI Connector
A 2-drop, 68-pin (16-bit) cable is installed in your server. One drop is connected to
the backplane, the other drop can connect to an additional SCSI removable media
device (not a hard disk drive). This cable is connected to the internal connector for
the 16-bit UltraSCSI controller. You can use this cable to install an additional
internal SCSI device in your server.
External SCSI Connector
To attach an external SCSI device to your server, connect an external SCSI cable
from the SCSI device to the SCSI connector on the back of the server. Ensure that
the last device on the external SCSI cable is terminated.
