With latches for a secure connection -- Note the above terminology, "SCSI-3 TO SCSI-1". They use it thruout their catalog to differentiate the SCSI cables/connectors/terminators. Digi-key also uses the same SCSI-(1,2,3) for naming their AMP(50CENT,HD50,HD68) terminators. It is from here that I assembled the above 'chart'. They might not be the correct terms according to the 'spec sheets', but they are becoming accepted street slang if nothing else. On that topic, does anyone know of online locations for any of the SCSI specs? -- Steve Passe | powered by smp@csn.net | FreeBSD -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- Version: 2.6.2 mQCNAzHe7tEAAAEEAM274wAEEdP+grIrV6UtBt54FB5ufifFRA5ujzflrvlF8aoE 04it5BsUPFi3jJLfvOQeydbegexspPXL6kUejYt2OeptHuroIVW5+y2M2naTwqtX WVGeBP6s2q/fPPAS+g+sNZCpVBTbuinKa/C4Q6HJ++M9AyzIq5EuvO0a8Rr9AAUR tBlTdGV2ZSBQYXNzZSA8c21wQGNzbi5uZXQ+ =ds99 -----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
