PCIe FireWire 800 adapter for legacy peripherals
The Vszerda PCIe FireWire 800 adapter adds four IEEE 1394 ports to a desktop computer through a single-lane PCI Express slot. It targets users who still operate DV cameras, audio interfaces or external drives that rely on the FireWire standard. The card includes a low-profile bracket for small-form-factor chassis.
Single x1 PCI Express lane at 2.5 Gb/s
The controller connects via a 1-lane PCI Express interface compliant with revision 1.0a, providing a 2.5 Gb/s full-duplex channel. This link speed is the sole determinant of whether the card can sustain the 800 Mbps maximum of FireWire 800 without host-side bottleneck. No other bus variant is supported.
Three bilingual ports handle 100 to 800 Mbps
The adapter supplies two 9-pin bilingual ports and one 6-pin port, supporting 100, 200, 400 and 800 Mbps transfer rates. It comfortably handles DV/HDV capture and legacy audio workflows at 400 Mbps, while the 800 Mbps ceiling covers faster external storage. Hot-plugging is not supported; power must be off during device connection.

Questions about this item
What does the 2.5 Gb/s PCIe lane mean for actual FireWire throughput?
The x1 PCIe 1.0a lane provides 2.5 Gb/s bandwidth, which is more than enough for the card's maximum FireWire 800 speed of 800 Mbps.
Which FireWire standards and speeds does the 1394b-compliant controller support?
It supports IEEE 1394b and is backward compatible with 1394a, delivering 100, 200, 400 and 800 Mbps transfer rates.
Will the low-profile bracket and 4.72-inch length fit my small-form-factor case?
The card measures about 4.72 by 3.93 by 0.66 inches and includes a low-profile bracket for slim chassis.
