The standard SDI cables we have for a KDA50 are
made of a single
32-way BERG type plug that breaks out into 4 8-way separate cables.
These terminate in VAX bulkhead connectors, and even though it was
only last week that I set up an SDI disk system I can't remember if
the bulkhead connectors can be removed to allow you to plug
the 8-way
cable ends directly into a drive :o\
It's been a few years now, but I'm sure that I've removed the
metal bulkhead ends so I could got directly from KDA50 ro
RA7x in a MicroVAX 3900. I'm also sure that the process was
non-destructive (i.e reversible - undo a few screws and the
two halves of the bulkhead connector come apart).
