-The naming scheme generally combines the connector type with the number of pins. IDC (Insulation Displacement Connector) is commonly used with flat ribbon cables, with the connector crimped directly onto the cable. Centronics-style connectors are a type of micro-ribbon connector, typically used with round, insulated external cables rather than flat ribbon cable. VHDCI (Very High Density Cable Interconnect) is a smaller, higher-density connector format, also typically used with round, insulated cables. The terms used in this table describe the physical connector rather than the SCSI standard or bus generation; the same connector type may have been used with multiple generations of SCSI.+The naming scheme generally combines the connector type with the number of pins. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDC_(electrical_connector)|IDC (Insulation Displacement Connector)]] is commonly used with flat ribbon cables, with the connector crimped directly onto the cable.
