ABSTRACT:
Two data communication channels having electrical ground positions that alternate with control and data positions are terminated in a single, dual-channel connector that occupies generally the same interconnection board real estate as is required for a single, prior art, data communication SI connector, such as for a Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) communication channels. A two-channel SCSI connector system and connection method includes providing a two-channel header having two ground buses, to which the alternating electrical ground wires of respective first and second SCSI channels are terminated. Only a few of the pins or positions of the two-channel connector are connected to the two ground buses while the majority of pins or positions are connected to the signal (control, data) wires of the two SCSI channels.
