2.5 SCSI bus timing
Unless otherwise indicated, the delay time measurements for each SCSI device, defined in paragraphs 2.5.1
through 2.5.60 shall be calculated from signal conditions existing at that SCSI device’s own SCSI bus connec-
tion. Thus, these measurements (except skew delay) can be made without considering delays in the cable.
Refer to the tables below for the actual timing values for these delays.
Table 4: SCSI bus control timing values in nanoseconds
[1]
Cable skew is measured at each SCSI device connection with the transmitted skew subtracted from the
received skew.

This is a recommended time. It is not mandatory.
