Overview
Since its onset, FireWire (a.k.a. IEEE 1394 and i.LINK™) has rapidly become
known for its flexibility, high speed, and ease of use. It is the interface choice for
digital, audio and visual devices, and is rapidly becoming one of the top
connectivity choices in the industry. Many devices already use FireWire and many
more manufacturers are finding a way to integrate this technology into their
products.
FireWire operates at a supported data transfer rate of 100, 200, and 400 Mbps
(Megabits per second). It is a true hot swappable interface allowing you to connect
up to 63 simultaneous devices that automatically switch to the highest speed,
accommodating the peripheral in use.
You will enjoy the convenience and speed that has made FireWire an industry
standard when it comes to connecting fast, high tech, and digital devices.
