1394b FireWire 800 PCI Express Host
1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing this IEEE 1394b FireWire 800 PCI Express
Card. It is the next
to spur the development of more innovative high-performance
devices and applications. It doubles the throughput of the
original
1394a
maximum distance of FireWire connections, and supports many
new types of cabling.
Features:
 Fully IEEE1394 OHCI compliance
 PCI Express Base Specifications 1.0a Compliant, 2.5Gbps
(250Mbytes/sec) Transfer Rate
 Up to 800Mbits/sec IEEE 1394b FireWire 800 transfer rate
 Two 9-pin (1394b) and one 6-pin (1394a legacy) external
connectors
