SK0-003 · Question #918

Which of the following type of connectors is found on narrow SCSI systems? (Select TWO).

The correct answer is C. Centronics 50 D. IDC-50. Narrow SCSI systems commonly use Centronics 50-pin connectors for external connections and IDC-50 connectors for internal connections to peripherals.

Why each option

Narrow SCSI systems commonly use Centronics 50-pin connectors for external connections and IDC-50 connectors for internal connections to peripherals.

ADB-15

DB-15 connectors are typically associated with video graphics array (VGA) or older game ports, not SCSI systems.

BCentronics 36

Centronics 36-pin connectors are primarily used for parallel printers and are not a type of connector found on SCSI systems.

CCentronics 50Correct

The Centronics 50-pin connector is a standard external connector type used for narrow SCSI devices, providing the necessary 50 pins for data and control signals.

DIDC-50Correct

The IDC-50 (Internal Disk Connector 50) is a common internal connector type, often found on ribbon cables inside computers, for connecting narrow SCSI hard drives and other internal peripherals.

EIDC-68

IDC-68 connectors are characteristic of Wide SCSI (SCSI-2 Wide, SCSI-3 Ultra-Wide) systems, which use 68 pins for a wider data path, not narrow SCSI.
