I'm using two cards currently and have noticed that on the SCOPE card there are several connectors on top where the STDM bus can connect with the other SCOPE cards. If I threw another STDM cable on there what would happen?

(If you can please turn off your caps lock...)

More STDM will give greater bandwidth between the cards. You need at least one (1) cable connecting all cards, but if you have more connectors, you can connect just those.

Example: Pulsar1, 2xSCOPE cards, you need one cable connecting all three, but then you can connect the 2 scopes with 4 more STDM cables, increasing bandwidth between the scopes.
