VMIVME-7455 Single-Slot VMEbus CD-ROM Drive Module
The VMIVME-7455 utilizes the P2 connectors on the VMEbus Backplane rear I/O for
the routing of all signals. All IDE signals are routed from the CPU to the
VMIVME-7455 by way of 64-conductor cable assemblies, using flat ribbon cables (see
figure below for a typical VMEbus backplane and shrouded connectors). See “Board
P2 Connector Pinout” on page 15 for the P2 connector.
VMIC recommends the use of backplanes with the shrouded type backplane
connectors. The shrouded connectors provide stability and the proper pin alignment.
