Ultra SCSI Cable Kit
INSTALLATION
1. Disconnect all power and remove cables from the Data Silo chassis.
2. Open the Data Silo chassis to gain access to the internal cables and rear
panel I/O connectors. Refer to the Data Silo User's Guide if necessary for
information on this procedure.
3. Remove existing internal SCSI ribbon cable if installed.
4. Verify that ALL devices within the Data Silo chassis have termination disabled.
5. Remove existing chassis rear panel connector(s) if necessary.

(2) provided screws, component-side facing away from the Data Silo panel
(see Figure 2).

11.If using a SCSI daisy-chain with multiple Data Silo chassis, verify that the
external SCSI cable meets the SCSI 3 (40 MBytes/sec) Specification and that
the cable does not exceed 3 meters (9.84 ft) in length.
NOTE: Ultra2 (LVD) devices can be installed with the
DCULTRA-KIT, but will only operate in Single-Ended
mode (maximum transfer rate of 40 MBytes/sec).
