6ft IEEE 1394a FireWire 400 cable

This 6ft SANOXY cable connects a 4-pin IEEE 1394a device to a 6-pin IEEE 1394a port on a computer. It is intended for users who need to link legacy FireWire peripherals such as camcorders or external drives to a host controller. The cable supports data transfer rates up to 400 Mbps. It is not suited for buyers who require a powered 6-pin to 6-pin connection for bus-powered devices.

Mixed 6-pin to 4-pin connectors

The 6-pin host end plugs into a standard FireWire port while the 4-pin device end fits self-powered peripherals. Because the peripheral supplies its own power, the two power conductors in the cable are not used. Premium triple shielding reduces EMI and RFI interference during transfers. The hot-pluggable design allows connection and disconnection without restarting the computer.

No bundled accessories or software

The package contains only the cable itself. No adapters, driver discs or configuration utilities are included. Compatibility relies on the host operating system's native IEEE 1394 support. Buyers who need additional adapters or mounting hardware must source them separately.

Questions about this item

What data rate does the IEEE 1394a FireWire 400 connection actually deliver?

The cable supports up to 400 Mbps, which is the maximum throughput defined by the IEEE 1394a standard for this interface.

What physical connectors are on each end so I know it fits my ports?

One end has a 6-pin plug for the computer port and the other end has a 4-pin plug for the self-powered peripheral.

Do I need to install drivers or configure anything before using this cable?

No driver installation is required; the connection is hot-pluggable, so you simply plug both ends in while the computer is running.
