HP FireWire IEEE 1394a PCIe x1 Card

This high speed serial interface enables fast data transfer from external peripherals such as external hard disks, digital cameras and video cameras. IEEE-1394a is one of the fastest serial interface standards ever developed which makes it great for use with high-speed or bandwidth-intensive multimedia peripherals such as digital video cameras, audio, streaming and graphics.

• IEEE-1394a protocol reduces delays in arbitration and signal distortion, and increases throughput


• Extending the cabling distance between devices up to 100 meters


• Hot-swappable: Devices can be added and removed while the bus is active


• Isochronous data delivery: no dropped frames - IEEE-1394a supports real-time data delivery


• Flexible: up to 63 devices can be connected on a single bus
