Overview
The CableEye CB5 SCSI connector board is a plug-in test interface fixture set manufactured by Cami Research for use with CableEye cable continuity testers. Each board has connectors for cables that have Centronics 50-pin male (SCSI-I), mini-Centronics 50-pin male (SCSI-I, -II), miniD 50-pin male (SCSI-I), and miniD 68-pin male (SCSI-II, -III) connectors. This connector board enables rapid, standardized testing of SCSI cables without requiring custom test jigs.
Key Features
- Multi-connector support: Interface board set CB5 (735): 50-pin Centronics (SCSI-I), 50-pin Mini-Centronics (SCSI-I/-II), 50-, 68-pin miniD (SCSI-I/-II/-III).
- Plug-and-play design: Physically mate with ALL models of CableEye® testers and the CableEye QuickMount™ Housing.
- Industry standard: Supports legacy SCSI-I, SCSI-II, and SCSI-III connector types commonly found in industrial and legacy computing environments.
- No additional adaptation required: Most boards include connectors of 64 or fewer pins, and attach without additional adaptation.
- High voltage rating: All CAMI CB boards are rated to operate at 500Vdc/ac.
Technical Specifications
The CB5 comes as a set of two connector interface cards, each supporting specific SCSI connector types. The board set is designed to integrate with CableEye tester systems for continuity and integrity testing of SCSI cables.
