Connection type
This SMUGDESK cable provides a Firewire IEEE 1394 6-pin male to USB 2.0 Type-A male connection. It is built for users who need to link legacy 6-pin Firewire devices such as DV cameras, audio interfaces or scanners to a standard USB port. The three-metre length gives flexibility for desktop setups.
Who this suits
The adapter suits owners of 6-pin Firewire equipment who want a direct wired link to a USB 2.0 host. It is not for buyers who need a 9-pin Firewire connection or who require bus-powered operation from the USB side. Users with 4-pin Firewire ports will also need a different cable.
Cable specification
The wire uses 28 AWG conductors with aluminium foil and braid shielding inside a 5.5 mm black jacket that meets UL 20276. It complies with RoHS standards and has passed high-voltage, reliability and electrical tests. These construction details determine whether the cable meets the durability and signal-integrity needs of a specific installation.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the cable is working after connecting my 6-pin Firewire device to a USB 2.0 port?
The operating system should recognise the attached camera, scanner or audio interface without extra drivers and data should transfer at USB 2.0 speeds.
What comes in the box and do I need any extra adapters?
Only the 3 m black cable with a 6-pin male Firewire plug on one end and a USB 2.0 Type-A male plug on the other is included; no separate power adapter or driver disc is supplied.
Which length should I choose among the 1.8 m, 3 m and 4.5 m versions?
Pick the shortest length that reaches between your device and computer — 1.8 m for close setups, 3 m for typical desk runs, 4.5 m when extra reach is needed.
