What's the cable part no. (KFESB to HS1CP tri-link) in the HS241-BX
kit? I've got a note 17-04288-01, is that correct? If I want to order
it, what part no. do I use?
Nige.

Nige,
The part number you have is correct. Remember that this cable has
built in termination, and the terminator SIP packs on the KFESB need to
be removed when this cable is used.

BTW, there is an HS1XX,2XX,SWXNA notes file at ssdevo::hs1xx_product

Can a BC29T-nn be used? (I can order those through IEG) but not the
17-nnnnn part.

Hi,
I suppose it depends on what you mean by can it be used. In a pinch it
will work, as long as you put the terminator packs back in the KFESB.
I think you would be doing the customer a disservice however. The
termination in the cable allows you to decide if you want to disconnect
the cable from the DSSI adapter in the system and still maintain
termination on the DSSI bus. This comes in handy when the customer needs
to have a DSSI adapter replaced and still wants his drives available
during the replacement.
Regards,
Kurt
