Terminator for Quantum DLT-7000 . . . ? (Help) |
|
|
Hi :)
I just got a external Quantum DLT-7000 SE TH6BE-YF Tabletop unit,
single-ended SCSI tape drive . The manual says I need to have a "68
pin active LVD/SE Multi-Mode terminator" but when I try to find one I
get really confused about all the different types and models and pins.
Does anyone have an external DLT7000 and can give me a specific part
number or a link for the actual terminator I need? That would be soooo
helpful!
Thank you!

Granite Digital (US) has what you want (part number 2015) but it's
horrendously expensive at $79. I tried Outpost.com (Fry's online store)
and Newegg.com but couldn't see them.
As an example of what you need: http://rswww.com (UK site) and search
for part numbers 210-1054 and 341-2377. Of those, the latter is the
better one (I've used them, on DLT7000s as well as other kit.)
Also http://www.computer-cables.com/ and search for CA-157. |

In my experience, the folks at www.scsi4me.com are very helpful with
this sort of thing and have good prices. (I have no connection with
the company other than as a customer.)

The 7000 is a single ended device. Any modern SE or LVD/SE terminator
will work. If it's SE only, it must be active, but that's about it. If
it's anything "Ultra" or "LVD", it's fine.

Yes, it'll work. Even if your SCSI card is LVD-capable, attaching the
DLT7000 will force the bus to SE, so using an SE-only terminator is
fine. |

Thanks for your advice, Ralf-Peter :)
But the problem is that when I find terminators, the different
connector types and other things are very confusing. I just hoped to
find someone who has a DLT7000 so I would know the EXACT terminator
without having to guess.
But thanks for your message !!

Thanks, Chris -- I may try them if I get stuck but I doubt they know
what kind of connector a DLT7000 needs.
Thanks for your suggestion :)

Hi Mike :)
Thanks so much for your advice. Yes, you are very right about $79
being waaaay too much!!
What do you think about this terminator I found on Ebay:

Thanks again!
