Internal Peripheral Cabling

The following sections show EIDE and SCSI cable routings and connections to internal peripheral
devices, and depicts standard and optional cables used in the system. For detailed information and
location of bus connectors on the system board, see the System Board Manual.
CAUTION When handling cables, flex them as little as possible. Ensure that cables do not
contact sharp metal surfaces or become excessively bent or twisted. In particular,
SCSI cables should not have any creased bends.

EIDE Cabling

The installed EIDE cable connects the primary EIDE channel to the CD-ROM drive and
(optionally) to another device in the peripheral device bay. Another EIDE cable (provided but not
installed) can connect the secondary EIDE channel to another device in the peripheral device bay.
