Note that the External connectors used on Sun 3/50-60's do not
match up pin number by pin number with the dual inline numbers.
Rather, it's arranged so that when a flat 50 pin cable is clamped
on, and connected to a similar arrangement, things are untwisted.
To clarify what I mean, pin 3  on the scsi bus is not pin 3 on the
external connector, in the usual numbering scheme printed on the
DB50 connectors.
