To connect to an Ultra320 or an Ultra160 SCSI peripheral, use a VHDCI-VHDCI cable. To

1. Attach the appropriate end of the cable to the external peripheral according to the
instructions that came with the device. Be sure to secure the thumbscrews.
2. Attach the VHDCI end of the cable to the adapter and secure the thumbscrews.
