Features:
- Inter-column role: carries I/O-bus communication between Tri-GP I/O columns through extender modules.
- Channel separation: each of the three bus channels follows a distinct cable path.
- Spare-part identity: the cable has its own orderable part number within the 2281 extender kit.
The cable belongs in the Tri-GP extension path between I/O columns, while baseplate interconnect assemblies join modules within one column.
Keeping the three bus channels on separate leads preserves the system architecture when a cabinet is expanded or restored.
For an exact spare order, the installed cable length and the presence of extender modules determine whether a cable-only replacement is appropriate.

Important Notice: These Apter resources support cable identification and a quotation for the installed Tri-GP system.
- Controller path: the Tri-GP I/O bus links main processors to I/O modules through the baseplate arrangement.
- Column extension: bus cables link extender modules when an installation spans more than one I/O column.
- Channel separation: a full TMR extension uses a distinct cable for each of the A, B and C bus channels.
- Individual part: 4000212-002 names the 2-ft cable, rather than a powered extender assembly.
- 2281 kit: the listed kit includes two 3000678-100 extender modules and three of these cables.
- Other hardware: the kit separately lists an I/O interconnect assembly and top/bottom I/O end caps.
- Between columns: extender modules and bus cables connect the end of one I/O column to the next.
- Within a column: an I/O interconnect assembly, rather than this cable, joins neighboring baseplates.
- Panel planning: the 2-ft listed cable length should suit the installed spacing between the paired extender positions.
- Multi-column Tri-GP panel: an extender pair and three cable paths link separate I/O columns.
- Exact spare replacement: one damaged 2-ft bus cable can be sourced by its own part number without ordering a complete 2281 kit.
- Extender-kit planning: a three-channel connection can be checked against the 2281 bill of materials before a cabinet expansion or restoration.
