Raul, This sounds like a HD50 connector which is typically used on external narrow scsi devices from this period. The HD68 was used on wide scsi devices. The HD stands for high density. I have also seen them referred to as HP50 and HP68. Cyberguys.com is a good and cheap source of these cables, though I can't vouch for the accessibility of their site. -----Original Message----- From: speakup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:speakup-bounces at braille.uwo.ca] On Behalf Of Raul A.

I am trying to buy another cable because I do not wish to pay $89 for a new one at the local Comp USA here. The problem is I don't know what the type of connecter I need to get. I know what it looks like but I don't know the name. Both the scanner and the Adaptech 2920 pci card I am using have the same female connections. So the cable I need must have both male on both sides and they are the same at least. But I don't know the difference. I know it's not db-25. It has the little tiny pins and is not very long. I'm thinking it's either 50 or 68 pins. But when I think of 50 I'm reminded of the old hp IIP scanners with db-25 on one end and then the long two-row pin cable which may be the 50 pin. So that leaves the 68-pin but again. I'm not sure. Any ideas? Many thanks. - -- Raul A.
