Abstract
A cable used for transmitting the signals of a communications bus, such as a SCSI bus, having arbitration control signals subject to a wired-or glitch--such as the SCSI BSY signal. High propagation speed conductors increase the propagation speed of the BSY signal, resulting in a proportionate increase in the maximum length of the SCSI bus cable while maintaining adherence with the SCSI bus timing specifications.
