Does anyone know where 50 PIN DB50P (PIN) Ribon cable connectors can be 
purchased?  I can get the ones for the crimp pins just about anywhere.  I was
looking to make my own SUN scsi cables.

But SCSI-2 does (and SCSI-1 should have):

 "IMPLEMENTORS NOTE:  Stub clustering should be avoided.  Stubs should be
  spaced at least 0.3 meters apart."
