Fast scsi defines 300 cm as maximum length, but I know situations in which
that also is too much (but some systems also work with 600 cm length, but only
if you have only one or 2 devices attached).

When you add cable lengths you have to add all external cables and for each
external device-box you also have to add about 20cm for a one-device box and
30cm for a two-device-box.
