SCSI Cable and Terminator Requirements
If the autoloader is the last device on the SCSI bus you must attach a terminator to
the SCSI connector on the back panel of the autoloader. There must be a
terminator on each end of the SCSI bus. Typically, the host adapter provides the
front-end termination.
SCSI Cable Length
LVD SCSI configurations have a maximum allowable bus length of 39.4 feet
(12 meters). To determine the cable length of the bus, measure the lengths of the
SCSI cables connecting each device to that bus and add those lengths together for
the total length. To that total length, add 16 inches (40.64 cm) for the internal
SCSI cable length used in the autoloader.
