Sometimes the 90-degree cable works best and
sometimes
the straight one works best. The 90-degree ones work
nicely at the back of a VS4000 ... not so much
spce is needed at the back of the box (vents
are at the sides!).
Same deal goes with the 90-degree vs straight
ethernet connectors.
Yes, it was just a minor rant about the wrong cable shipping (I
assume) with a VS3100 w/ TK50. I even tried lengthening the 90 degree
connector with a passthru SCSI terminator, but with the bus
double-terminated it didn't see the CDROM. :( I haven't had a chance
to get the correct cable either.
A 90-degree cable would be very useful for a BA213 chassis, since there is
a cover over the bulkhead panel. I have a brand new SCSI kit for a BA213
put away somewhere for the day I find a BA213 housed MicroVAX.
