    Operating This Drive on a SCSI Bus A Brief Overview of SCSI A Brief Overview of SCSI General The Small Computer System Interface (SCSI), is a contention-based bus that accommodates different speed devices without impacting the devices with faster transfer speeds. This specification was defined by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) in 1986.

  • Page 60: Termination

    Operating This Drive on a SCSI Bus A Brief Overview of SCSI Termination To keep signals on the SCSI bus from being reflected, “terminators” must be placed at each end of the physical bus. These terminators may be either active or passive. Passive termination is a resistor network.

  • Page 61: Connectors

    Operating This Drive on a SCSI Bus A Brief Overview of SCSI The differential bus uses two lines for each signal and measures the voltage difference between the two signals. Differential retains more signal quality than single-ended and is not as sensitive to noise, allowing for a longer cable length. The maximum allowable length of a differential bus is 25 meters (82 feet) for all types buses (narrow, wide, fast, Fast-20).
