  • Page 5: Installation

    Installation There are two FireWire Cat5 transceivers in the package. Either can work as sender or receiver. 1.) Connect FireWire Cat5 Extender to the host system with an IEEE1394b (9pin) cable. Note: if you’re using a desktop PC or any Mac, you’ll probably need to use the 9pin to 6pin included in the package.
  • Page 6: Troubleshooting

    Troubleshooting 1.) LED is not lit, or it is lit dimly, please disconnect the transceivers and then reconnect them. This will help determine if something just has a bad connection. If that doesn’t work, then try a different Cat5e or Cat 6 cable. 2.) LED is not lit: You don’t have enough power.
