Cabling for Optional SCSI Devices Depending on the model, your computer may include one of the SCSI cables shown in the next illustration. SCSI Cable Options Because your computer comes preconfigured, cable configuration does not become a consideration until you decide to add an optional SCSI device.  Computers with 2-, 3-, and 4-peripheral SCSI cables come  with a terminator on the end of the cable. The connector on the opposite end of the cable always connects to the system board. All SCSI devices connected with these cables must  have their termination disabled. Some devices may not have terminating jumpers on the device. Termination on these devices must be achieved with terminated cable. When installing a SCSI device, be sure to route the SCSI cable over the expansion board cage, between the raised areas. For additional information about installing optional SCSI devices, refer to the documentation that comes with the device or contact your Compaq authorized dealer, reseller, or service provider.

Cabling for Optional SCSI Devices
Depending on the model, your computer may include one of the SCSI
cables shown in the next illustration.
SCSI Cable Options
Because your computer comes preconfigured, cable configuration does
not become a consideration until you decide to add an optional SCSI
device.
Computers with 2-, 3-, and 4-peripheral SCSI cables come
with a terminator
on the end of the cable. The connector on
the opposite end of the cable always connects to the system
board. All SCSI devices connected with these cables must
have their termination disabled.
Some devices may not have terminating jumpers on the device.
Termination on these devices must be achieved with terminated
cable.
When installing a SCSI device, be sure to route the SCSI cable over
the expansion board cage, between the raised areas.
For additional information about installing optional SCSI devices,
refer to the documentation that comes with the device or contact your
Compaq authorized dealer, reseller, or service provider.
