•

Require that termination power (termpwr) be provided by the SCSI bus
host adapters on each SCSI bus segment.

_____________________

Note

_____________________

The UltraSCSI hubs are designed to sense loss of termination
power (such as a cable pull or termpwr not enabled on the
host adapter) and shut down the applicable port to prevent
corrupted signals on the remaining SCSI bus segments.

3.6.1.1 DS-DWZZH-03 Description

The DS-DWZZH-03:

•

Is a 3.5-inch StorageWorks building block (SBB).

•

Can be installed in:

–

A StorageWorks UltraSCSI BA356 storage shelf (which has the
required 180-watt power supply).

–

The lower righthand device slot of the BA370 shelf within the RA7000
or ESA 10000 RAID array subsystems. This position minimizes cable
lengths and interference with disks.

–

A non-UltraSCSI BA356 which has been upgraded to the 180-watt
power supply with the DS-BA35X-HH option.

•

Uses the storage shelf only to provide its power and mechanical support
(it is not connected to the shelf internal SCSI bus).

•

Has three Very High Density Cable Interconnect (VHDCI) differential
SCSI bus connectors.

•

Does not use a SCSI ID.

•

DS-DWZZH-03 and DS-DWZZH-05 UltraSCSI hubs may be housed
in the same storage shelf with disk drives. Table 3–3 provides the
supported configurations.

Figure 3–2 shows a front view of the DS-DWZZH-03 UltraSCSI hub.
