Connecting the SCSI Cable to the Jukebox

Connecting the SCSI Cable to the Jukebox
The jukebox accepts a single-ended SCSI bus. The connectors are low-density
50-pin (Centronics type).
The drives are "fast" SCSI so you have a maximum of 3 meters (9.8 feet) available
for the SCSI bus. The jukebox uses 1.5 meters (4.9 feet) of of this bus internally.
This leaves 1.5 meters (4.9 feet) for the remainder of the bus.
Your jukebox can be connected to your host computer in two ways:
as the only SCSI peripheral on a bus
•
as one of multiple SCSI peripherals on a bus (not recommended)
•
