BOSTON, Feb. 11, 1992, NetWorld Booth #4703 -- Anco Corporation today announced the availability of an HDI (high density interface) SCSI (small computer systems interface) cable assembly for the Powerbook Macintosh notebook computer. The PowerBook HDI SCSI cable assembly is built to Apple specifications and manufactured under an agreement with Apple which permits Anco to supply the product to third party OEMs and distributors. The PowerBook HDI SCSI cable assembly provides Powerbook Macintosh notebooks with high speed access to LANs through the HDI SCSI 3-pin port located at the back of the computer. Users can daisy chain up to six additional peripherals such as a video interface to a large screen monitor, a scanner, an external hard drive or tape backup unit to take full advantage of the PowerBook's built-in SCSI capabilities. Anco offers two versions of the new cable assembly to meet the needs of peripheral manufacturers using either of the popular industry standards. For those companies building products based on the Centronics 50 connector, Anco offers either male or female models for connection to the network, peripherals or to a docking station. For manufacturers whose product lines require the defacto DB-25 connector, Anco provides this popular and less expensive solution. Custom solutions for companies using their own proprietary connectors are also available for high-volume orders. The PowerBook HDI SCSI cable assembly is now available. OEM and distributor pricing for 1000 piece orders begins at less than $25 per unit. All products are UL approved and FCC Class B shielded. Anco Corporation provides complete networking solutions for budget-sensitive applications where reliable, high quality communications are required. Anco manufactures hardware for both Ethernet and Token-Ring networks. The company has recently expanded its family of products offered directly to end users under the Anco Corporation label to complement its OEM sales efforts. Multi-station access units (MAUs), hubs, network interface cards (NICs), connectors, transceivers, baluns, and filters as well as cables, and other networking accessories are available from Anco. Established in 1979, Anco Corporation, based in Rancho Cucamonga, Calif., provides sales, distribution and service to customers worldwide.
