ft) maximum. This three-meter length includes both internal SCSI
cables (inside the Dock I or external SCSI device) as well as external
SCSI cables (outside the Dock I or external SCSI device).
The following table shows the SCSI cable length for the Dock I, IBM
storage enclosures, and SCSI cables.
Cable Length
Dock I Model 001 (internal cable) 0.2 m (0.7 ft)
SCSI Storage Enclosure, Model 3510 (internal cable) 0.3 m (1.0 ft)
External Storage Enclosure For SCSI Devices, Model 3511 (internal cable) 1.2 m (3.9 ft)
SCSI Card To Option Cable (60 to 50-pin external cable) 1.2 m (3.9 ft)
SCSI Option To Option Cable (50 to 50-pin external cable) 0.6 m (2.0 ft)
Example:
If you plan to install an SCSI device and two SCSI Storage
Enclosures (Model 3510) to your Dock I, a total cable length of 2.6 m
satisfies the specification (no more than three meters).
