Compaq AA-RHGWB-TE manual Supported Scsi Cables, Cable Connector Pins Configuration Use Density

In addition, each supported cable comes in various lengths. Use the shortest possible cables to adhere to the limits on SCSI bus length.

Table 2–3 describes each supported cable and the context in which you would use the cable. Note that there are cables with the Compaq 6-3 part number that are not listed, but are equivalent to the cables listed.

Table 2–3: Supported SCSI Cables

Cable	Connector	Pins	Configuration Use
	Density
BN21W-0B	Three high	68-pin	A Y cable that can be attached to a
			KZPSA-BB or KZPBA-CB if there
			is no room for a trilink connector.
			It can be used with a terminator to
			provide external termination.
BN21M	One low, one	50-pin	Connects the single-ended end of
	high	LD to	a DWZZA-AA or DWZZB-AA to

BN21K,	Two HD68	68-pin	Connects BN21W Y cables or wide
BN21L, or			devices. For example, connects
328215-00X			KZPBA-CBs, KZPSA-BBs, HSZ40s,
			HSZ50s, the differential sides of
			two SCSI signal converters, or a
			DWZZB-AA to a BA356.

aDo not use a KZPBA-CB with a DWZZA-AA or DWZZB-AA and a TZ885 or TZ887. The DWZZAs and DWZZBs can not operate at UltraSCSI speed.

Always check a SCSI cable for bent or broken pins. Be sure that you do not bend or break any pins when you connect or disconnect a cable.
