The cable is the single most
critical item in the installation of a successful,
high-reliability, maximum throughput SCSI system. The longer the
cable and the faster the data throughput, the more critical the
cable becomes and the greater its contribution to the overall
system performance.
With today's ever faster switching
and transfer speeds the characterization of the SCSI cable is
essential. High speed effects like reflections and crosstalk can
degrade or render a system inoperable Methode tests and
characterises its SCSI products for Impedance, Crosstalk, Skew and
EMI to ensure its compliance with the SCSI standard. Methode's
years of expertise in SCSI terminators complements the cable range
and allows us to integrate the terminator into the cable
shell/connector if required.
Features:
- Impedance Controlled Complies
with SCSI Parallel Interface SPI-3.
- Impedance -110ohms nominal
(range in connector neighborhood 90 to 150 ohms).
- Crosstalk - Typically < 3% @
500pS (all signals to REQ and ACK respectively).
- Pair to Pair Skew < 82pS per
Meter + 50pS.
- EMI - 360 Degree Shielding with
Die-Cast shells CMPT < 40dB.
