Note: Shielded data cables, such as those provided with the subsystem, must be used to prevent radio frequency interference. It is recommended that you use the cables provided with your system. These cables have been tested and meet stringent guidelines set forth by the SCSI-3 ANSI specifications.

Before installation, you will need to consider the following:

Identify which DEU subsystem will be the “master” subsystem and which will be the “slave” subsystem(s). The Differential Converter and Ultra Extender cards install differently for each configuration.

Determine which mode the DEU will be configured. This includes the type of host controller (RAID Controller – single-ended or SCSI host adapter – differential). Also the number of controllers

T(adapters) that will be used in the host system.

Determine the number subsystems that will be used per controller (adapter). Each section provides diagrams for the supported configurations using the minimum number of controller channels. Maximizing the channels per subsystem may be accomplished by mixing supported configuration with available channels.
