Abstract
Disclosed herein is a SCSI ID connector assembly 20 connectable with a carrier (24) which supports memory storage devices having ID ports. The SCSI ID connector assembly (20) has various connectors including a first terminal (50), a feed-through connector (52) and a second terminal (54). The feed-through connector (52) is compatible with one type of ID port and the second terminal (54) is compatible with another type of ID port. The first terminal (50) is divided into a ground plug (186) and a separate active plug (188). The active plug (188)is selectively rotatable about its axis to reverse bit sequences. Accordingly, the SCSI ID connector assembly is compatible with a variety of ID port types.
