Hello,

I'm looking to make my own SC Bus cables, however I'm not quite to sure what I'm doing.

The way they're put together seems simple enough since they appear idiot proof and I have a couple documents on how to put them together.

My question is about the connectors. I can find two differnet connectors from 3M one that has RecessOddRow and the other RecessEvenRow. What's the signifigance between the two?
If I make a single cable with some connectors do they all have to be OddRow or EvenRow or can I mix the two?

Also, are there terminators? If not, what makes `em know when to stop the signal?
Because I cut an SC bus cable in half and now neither half works. Why?

one last thing, if you could post a few web pages that can help me out, that'd be great.

Thanks in advance :)
