IBM's Micro Channel based SCSI adapters and planars use special High Density
Centronics connectors, that are physically incompatible with the "industry
standard" Centronics CN-50 (for SCSI-1) and Micro DB50 (SCSI-2) variants. The
connectors used by IBM are physically smaller (with smaller pins and finer
pin-pitch) and have either 60 (SCSI-1) or 68 (SCSI-2) pins. The two connector
variants are known as HDCN60 and HDCN68 respectively.

Terminator for external 60-pin connector.
Used for adapters that don't support auto-termination. Instead of taking the
machine apart to install an internal terminator pack, it's possible to use an
external terminator like the one pictured. (there are 68-pin variants as well)
