Adaptec *claims* that their ACK-68P-50P-E will convert from 68 to 50
pins with active termination. I have only just ordered 2 of them so
I don't know if they really work. I'll try to remember to post to this
list once I have received them.
I will be using the adapter to go from an Adaptec 2940uw external 68 pin
connector to an Exabyte 8700LT external tape drive with a 50 pin
external
connector. There is one SCSI disk drive connected to the 2940UW's 68
pin
internal connector.
