3. INTERFACE CONNECTORS  
The IDE 4000 has a 2-mm pitch interface connector located on the rear panel. It accesses the DC  
power source and the IDE bus through a non-shielded 44-pin flat cable. Figure 6 provides an  
example of a connector that can be used to interface with this connector, but any compatible  
connectors may be used.  
Figure 6: IDE 4000 Interface Connector  
In order to prevent damage to the disk by connecting the cable with a 180º rotation, ensure that  
the special plastic key at pin 20 mating connector is blocked, as shown in Figure 6. This key  
should be ordered from the connector manufacturer.  
IDE Cable  
The cable length should not exceed 18 inches.
