Vszerda IEEE 1394 Firewire 400 6-pin to 6-pin cable 1.8m

SKU CH-ESZD-FRBKK

Connects FireWire 400 devices at 400 Mbps with a 1.8 m shielded, gold-plated 6-pin cable

  • IEEE 1394 compliant for reliable device connectivity
  • Pure copper core enables stable high-speed data transfer
  • 8 m length suits desktop and mobile setups
  • Shielded design resists electromagnetic interference
  • Gold-plated connectors resist corrosion for lasting contact

IEEE 1394 FireWire 400 cable

This 1.8 m cable carries a 6-pin to 6-pin FireWire 400 link for DV camcorders, video capture cards and legacy laptops. It is built for users who still move tape-based footage or control older 1394 peripherals from a modern workstation. The pure copper cores and gold-plated plugs keep the connection reliable for capture sessions.

400 Mbps practical ceiling

The IEEE 1394 interface tops out at 400 Mbps, so sustained throughput will never reach the speeds of later serial buses. Electromagnetic shielding helps maintain that ceiling in noisy environments, but the bandwidth limit is fixed by the standard itself. Longer runs or daisy-chained devices can further reduce real-world performance.

6-pin connector requirement

Both ends are 6-pin, so the host and the device must each present a full-size 1394a port that supplies bus power. A 4-pin (i.LINK) port on either side will not mate without a separate adapter. Verify the port style on your capture card and camcorder before ordering.

Questions about this item

Is the 1.8 m length right for my desk-to-camcorder setup?

At 1.8 m the cable reaches from a desktop port to a nearby DV camcorder or capture card without excess slack; measure your exact run before ordering.

Does the 400 Mbps rating mean I get full-speed DV capture?

Yes, the cable meets the IEEE 1394 400 Mbps specification, so it carries standard-definition DV streams from camcorder to capture card without bottleneck.

Will the 6-pin to 6-pin IEEE 1394 connectors fit my laptop and video capture card?

Both ends are 6-pin FireWire 400 plugs, matching the ports on most legacy laptops, desktop add-in cards and professional DV capture devices.
