• 4-14 SCSI Termination

Terminating the SCSI bus “chain” is necessary for SCSI devices to work
properly. If the last device on the SCSI bus chain does not have termina-
tion jumpers, you must terminate it using a male or female terminator as
illustrated below.

• 4-15 SMBus Connector

To use SMBus devices, connect the motherboard’s SMBus connector to
the SMB In connector on the DA-BP5E SCSI backplane board. Another
SMBus device can be connected to the SMB Out connector on the backplane
board.
