2.2.4.3 Making External SCSI Bus Connections

This section provides step-by-step instructions for making external SCSI bus connections.

Step 1. Plug the 68-pin VHDCI connector on one end of a shielded external high density cable (see Figure 2.3) into the host adapter connector J2.

This connector is exposed on the back panel of your computer.

Figure 2.9 illustrates where this connection is made.
