Card pci IEEE 1394



Firewire (IEEE-1394) Firewire was developed to meet the demands of today’s audio and video applications. It’s extremely fast, with transfer rates of 400 MB/sec, and even faster speeds are being developed. Fierwire supports three different-100 MB/sec, 200 MB/sec, and 400 MB/sec. A maximum of 63 devices can be connected by daisy chaining them through two “game boy” type connectors that have six pins each. Firewire technology is expansive, but is applicable in areas where the work involves a lot of digital video.

In the below figure shows a Adaptor-PCI---3-Firewire-IEEE-1394 which can be inserted in the PCI slot on motherboard.
