Installation Basics

The internal cable permits connection of multiple internal devices. SCSI devices that are

connected to the internal connector are installed inside the host computer enclosure.

The external connector is accesible through the D-shell connector at the back of the

host system and is designed to connect devices outside the host system enclosure.

The following table has connector details of I/OHIGHWAY.

TABLE 2 - Connector Details

To increase the reliability of the cabling being used with the host adapter, it is recom-

mended that the following guidelines be observed:

 SCSI-1  up to 6 meters or 20 feet

 FastSCSI  up to 6 meters or 20 feet

 Impedance of the cable should be between 90-110 ohms

 Use high quality shielded connectors

Installation in Ten Easy Steps

1 Power down the host computer and all peripherals.

Remove the cover from the host system. You may need to refer to the system manual

for cover removal. If necessary, identify the PCI sockets inside the host system with

the aid of the system documentation.

2 Use static electricity discharge precautions.

Remove possible static discharge potential from any objects that the host adapter

may come in contact with before installation. This can be accomplished by touching

a bare metal chassis rail after you have turned off the power.
