The INI-9100U/9100UW host adapter allows for versatility in building your
SCSI bus configuration. The INI-9100U host adapter can be connected to a
maximum of seven SCSI devices. The INI-9100U has one internal 50-pin
connector and one 50-pin high density external connector. The internal cable
permits connection of multiple internal devices. SCSI devices that are
connected to the internal connector are installed inside the host computer
enclosure. The external connector is accessible through the D-shell connector at
the back of the host system is designed to connect devices outside the host
system enclosure. The cabling required for an external SCSI bus configuration
is not included with this kit.
The INI-9100UW can be connected to a maximum of fifteen SCSI devices.
The INI-9100UW has two internal connectors: one 68-pin high density ultra
wide SCSI connector; and one 50-pin connector. They are used for attaching
internally mounted devices by means of a ribbon cable. The INI-9100UW also
features one 68-pin high density external connector for attaching external
devices. The internal cable permits connection of multiple internal devices.
SCSI devices that are connected to the internal connector are installed inside
the host computer enclosure. The external connector is accessible through the
D-shell connector at the back of the host system is designed to connect devices
outside the host system enclosure. The cabling required for an external SCSI
bus configuration is not included with this kit.
