1.2.4 Ultra SCSI

The LSI8751D has full support for Ultra SCSI and simultaneously
supports Fast SCSI. Ultra SCSI is an extension of the SCSI-3 family of
standards that expands the bandwidth of the SCSI bus, allowing faster
synchronous data transfers. Special SCSI cables are specified for
operation with Ultra SCSI devices, and you must consider the total
number of devices and the length of your SCSI bus when setting up your
system. See

Section 1.2.3, “Connecting the SCSI Peripherals,” page 1-5

for a more detailed explanation of SCSI bus connections.
