• Answer: Ultra 160, also called Ultra 3 is backward compatible through the single-ended interface, if it is multimode Ultra 160. It is doubtful that anyone will build Ultra 160 devices that are not multimode. Remember that if a single-ended device is placed directly on a multimode Ultra 160 bus the entire bus will switch to the single-ended mode with its limitations on data throughput and cable length.
