SKU CH-VFP0-7T41G

Connects 9-pin FireWire 800 ports to 6-pin FireWire 400 devices at up to 800 Mbps over 1.8 m

  • Up to 800 Mbps transfer speed for fast data moves
  • 8 m length gives flexible device placement
  • 9-pin to 6-pin connects FireWire 800 and 400 ports
  • Plug-and-play hot swap lets you connect without shutdown
  • Meets IEEE 1394b spec for reliable compatibility

Cable purpose and compatibility

This LORDWORLD FireWire cable connects a 9-pin IEEE 1394b port to a 6-pin IEEE 1394a port. It suits users linking legacy FireWire 400 devices such as DV camcorders or audio interfaces to newer FireWire 800 host adapters or laptops.

Thermals noise and power

The passive cable draws no external power and generates no heat or noise during operation. Data throughput reaches up to 800 Mbps when both ends support FireWire 800, otherwise it falls back to 400 Mbps limited by the slower port.

Deciding specification

The 9-pin to 6-pin gender configuration is the single detail that determines whether this cable fits your ports. Buyers needing a 9-pin to 9-pin or 6-pin to 6-pin connection cannot use this item.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the 9-pin FireWire 1394b end and the 6-pin FireWire 400 end, and which step do people often miss?

Plug the 9-pin connector into the FireWire 800 port and the 6-pin connector into the FireWire 400 port; the step often missed is ensuring both devices support hot-swap before connecting while powered on.

What maintenance or replacement will this 1.8 m cable need over time?

Inspect the 9-pin and 6-pin connectors for bent pins or dust; replace the cable if the shielding is damaged or if intermittent drops appear during 800 Mbps transfers.

What limit appears first during sustained 800 Mbps transfers with this IEEE 1394b cable?

The 800 Mbps rating is capped by the slower FireWire 400 port or device, so actual sustained throughput will not exceed 400 Mbps on that end.
