B.3 SCSI Cable Length
The maximum combined length for a string of SCSI cables is six meters for
non-differential cables. For differential SCSI cables, the maximum is 25 meters.
To calculate the total length of a SCSI string, include external cables, internal
cables, and printed traces. Table B-3 lists measurements for Enterprise servers.
B.4 SCSI Termination
The I/O board in slot 1 of any Enterprise server must be terminated. This slot
connects to the SCSI tray through cables and a connector on the centerplane.
An I/O board in any other slot does not require termination if no devices
connect to the SCSI bus on that board.
