4-10. SCSI Backplane

The SCSI backplane of this server is comprised of two SCSI backplane boards with a 68-pin SCSI connector, power input, and SCSI ID dip switches on each SCSI backplane board. This configuration allows Ultra2 or Wide-SCSI hard disk drives to be docked into the server using a common connector. The female end is located on the SCSI backplane board, while the male end is located on the hot-swap tray.
