SCSI Connectors
  Connector Description
A
This 50-contact, centronics-type is used for Slow, Fast or Ultra, 8-bit Narrow SCSI applications. Frequently called the SCSI-1 Connector. The SCSI spec terms it the Alternative 2, A-cable connector
This 50-contact, Centronics-type is used for Slow, Fast or Ultra, 8-bit Narrow SCSI applications. Frequently called the "SCSI-1 Connector". The SCSI spec terms it the "Alternative 2, A-cable connector".
B
This DB-50 pin-and-socket connector is not recognized by the SCSI specifications. Used on older Sun and DG computers for 8-bit Narrow SCSI applications.

C
Known as the 50-pin high-density SCSI connector. This pin-and-socket connector is also called the SCSI-2 Connector. The SCSI recognized version has latch type fasteners. Used for 8-bit Narrow SCSI devices. The SCSI spec terms it the - Alt 1, A-cable connector
Known as the 50-pin high-density SCSI connector. This pin-and-socket connector is also called the "SCSI-2 Connector". The SCSI recognized version has "latch" type fasteners. Used for 8-bit Narrow SCSI devices. The SCSI spec terms it the "Alt 1, A-cable connector".
C
This pin-and-socket DB25 connector was used on Apple computers, devices directed at the Apple market and some older Sun workstations. Not recognized by the SCSI specs. SCSI systems with this connector must be limited to Slow data rates and be no more than 4 or 5 feet long

D
Known as the 68-pin high-density SCSI connector. This pin-and-socket connector is also called the SCSI-3 Connector. The SCSI recognized version has thumbscrew fasteners. A few SCSI devices have used the latch version. Used for 8-bit Wide SCSI devices. The SCSI spec terms it the Alt 3, P-cable connector
Known as the 68-pin high-density SCSI connector. This pin-and-socket connector is also called the "SCSI-3 Connector". The SCSI recognized version has "thumbscrew" fasteners. A few SCSI devices have used the "latch" version. Used for 16-bit Wide SCSI devices. The SCSI spec terms it the "Alt 3, P-cable connector".
E
This 68-contact is known as the VHDCI SCSI connector. Its very small size allows fitting up to 4 of them on the mounting bracket on the back of a PCI or ISA bus card. The SCSI spec terms it the Alt 4, P-cable connector
This 68-contact is known as the "VHDCI" SCSI connector. Its very small size allows fitting up to 4 of them on the mounting bracket on the back of a PCI or ISA bus card. The SCSI spec terms it the "Alt 4, P-cable connector".
F
This SCSI-1 50 contact IDC normally used with ribbon cable internally.  There is no backshell for this connector. It may be used externally on one end of a round cable, however, the wire will be exposed at the connector.
This SCSI-1 and SCSI-2, 50 contact IDC is normally used with ribbon cable internally. There is no back-shell for this connector. It may be used externally on one end of a round cable, however, the wire will be exposed at the connector.
