Drive Module Cable Requirements
E3300 Interface Cables
The E3300 drive module has two SCSI connectors. To connect the drive module to a
SYM1000E command module, you must use 68-pin, VHDCI (very high density cable
interface) LVD, Ultra SCSI-2 cables.
The maximum length for any SCSI, 68-pin HD cable is 25 m (82 ft.) or 12 m (39 ft.) for
VHDCI cable. The total length includes both internal and external cabling. The SCSI
cabling inside this drive module is approximately 0.1 m (4 in.) for the host bus. Table 14
lists the SCSI cables that you can use on this drive module.
SCSI
Terminators
If you are installing the drive module as the last device on a SCSI bus, you must install a 16-
bit terminator on the OUT connector. Every drive module shipped from the factory
includes 16-bit terminators.
