SCSI cables and connectors
The internal Scorpion 96 supports connection to a standard,
single-ended SCSI or SCSI-2 interface. A 50-conductor flat
cable or a 25-signal twisted-pair cable may be used to
connect the drive to its SCSI host adapter. The cable should
not be longer than 6 meters (19.5 feet).
The internal DAT drive provides a 50-pin, right-angle, dual-
row single-ended SCSI connector attached to the main PCB
at the back of the drive.
