Primary Conductor

A minimum primary conductor size of 28 AWG is recommended to
minimize noise effects and ensure proper distribution of terminator
power.

SCSI Cable Connector Requirements

The SCSI connector is located at the back of the tape drive, as shown
in Figure 4-5. The connector is a 50-pin male ribbon cable connector.
The stub length within the tape drive is less than 50 mm.

To connect the tape drive to the SCSI bus, use a 50-pin female ribbon
cable connector (AMP No. 1-746285-0 or equivalent).

Table 4-1 shows the connector pin assignments for differential tape
drives; Table 4-2 shows the connector pin assignments for
single-ended tape drives.
