Interconnections
The SCSI bus allows connection of up to fifteen peripherals to the host
computer. Use a SCSI cable with a half pitch 68 pin connector.
Precautions
• Switch off the host computer and peripherals before connecting the SCSI
cable.
• Make sure the SCSI connectors are pressed tightly together.
• If this unit is the last (or only) device on the Wide SCSI bus, make sure to
connect a terminator to the appropriate unused Wide SCSI connector. Using
an incompatible terminator may damage the unit.
• With an Ultra Wide SCSI bus, the total length of the SCSI cable(s)
connecting the host computer and the last device on the SCSI bus should be
less than 12 meters (39 feet). (If a SCSI single-end host adapter is at the end
of the SCSI bus, use less than 1.5 meters of SCSI cable.)
