Conﬁrm that you received the host bus adapter, low-proﬁle

bracket, product CD, and warranty card.

1 Planning the SCSI busses

The adapter has two channels. If you will only put one

device on each channel, skip this step.

When planning the SCSI busses, consider the following:

• Total bus cable length varies by the type of attached

devices. When the bus only contains LVD devices, the

maximum length is 12 m.

• If you are putting Single-Ended devices on a bus, see

the User Guide ontheproductCDformoredetails.

The last device on each bus must be terminated. When

planning dev

ice termination, keep the following in mind:

• Use an LVD terminator if the b us only has LVD devices.

• LVD Ultra2 and Ultra160 SCSI devices cannot supply

their own te

rmination.
