To connect three or more internal 8-bit SCSI devices to a SCSI
bus, obtain a 50-pin SCSI ribbon cable with enough connectors
to accommodate all of your internal 8-bit SCSI devices.

Connecting 16-bit Internal Wide SCSI Devices

16-bit internal Wide SCSI devices use a 68-pin flat SCSI ribbon cable
with P-cable connectors and are connected to the host adapter in the
same manner as standard 8-bit SCSI devices. The cable has connec-
tors at each end and additional connectors attached in the middle.
One end of the cable is attached to the internal 68-pin Wide SCSI
connector on the host adapter, and the Wide SCSI devices are
attached to the remaining connectors. Internal Wide cable connec-
tors are keyed and can only be plugged in one way; pin-1 orienta-
tion is automatic. Up to 15 internal Wide SCSI devices can be
connected to the 68-pin internal SCSI connector.
