Hi all,

For a commercial product, which has to provide proprietary 4-signal
connection between two external devices, I am tempted to use SATA connector=
s
and cable. They are cheap, mass produced and thus readily available.

I looked into http://www.sata-io.org/ website and couldn't find any legal
limitation to use SATA connectors for something not being actually SATA
technology. Does anyone have a suggestion on where to look at to know
whether this could raise legal problems?

TIA
