Choosing a SCSI cable

The Apple Color OneScanner connects to your Macintosh through a Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) cable (pronounced “SKUH-zee”). This cable provides for high-speed communication between the computer and a SCSI device, or devices, connected to the computer.

You will need to purchase a SCSI cable to connect your Apple Color OneScanner to the Macintosh. If you have a Macintosh IIfx, you also need a special terminator. For more information about connecting the scanner to a Macintosh IIfx or PowerBook computer, see Appendix C.

Apple recommends that you purchase only Apple-brand SCSI cables, which are properly shielded for trouble-free operation. You can purchase SCSI terminators and cables from your authorized Apple reseller.
