Latest Driver & Manual Download : Please visit SUNIX website
Introduction
SUNIX FWB3400T is a single-chip solution for IEEE1394b/a FireWire PCI Express and the interface has
a potential transfer rates of 2.5 Gbps using a single-lane (or x1) PCI Express link. The 1394a OHCI
controller function is fully compatible with IEEE Standard 1394a-2000 and the latest 1394 Open Host
Controller Interface (OHCI) specification. This FireWire PCI-Express card allows you to connect
IEEE1394 compatible devices to your computer, such as DV cameras and camcorders.
IEEE 1394 Features
IEEE 1394b standard is a high-speed serial bus designed to deliver high data transfer speeds at a low
cost, and with the low degree of latency required by a peripheral bus or by a backup to a traditional
parallel bus. Among its key features are:
·Software: Orange Micro 1394b software enable better performance of the hardware & data transfer.
·High Speed: Speeds of 100, 200, 400 and 800 Mbps are supported.
·Isochronous Support: Deterministic bandwidth allocation guarantees bandwidth for time-sensitive
applications, such as real-time video feeds, that could otherwise be disrupted by heavy bus traffic.
·Flexible Topology: Devices can be daisy-chained and no central bus supervision is required. Besides,
it supports peer to peer function and allows up to 63 devices to be connected in a chain through its
standard 6-pin or 9-pin FireWire ports.
·Hot-plug Support: The bus is dynamically reconfigured whenever new nodes are added,
which means users don't have to configure node IDs or unique termination schemes.
·Cable Power: Low-cost peripherals can be powered directly from the 1394 cable, no external power needed.
·1394 End devices: IEEE 1394 interfaces have already been incorported into a variety of devices,
including PC cameras, DV camcorders, DV recorders, digital still cameras, high-speed hard disk
drives, CD/DVD ROM drives.
