Product Description
The Hosa FIW-94-115 FireWire 800 cable is a great choice for connecting devices. It links a 4-pin FireWire 400 interface to a 9-pin FireWire 800 interface, making it perfect for hooking up DV cameras to modern PCs. Key features include 4-pin to 9-pin connectors, a 15-foot length, data transfer rates up to 800 Mbps (system dependent), compliance with the IEEE 1394b standard, and backward compatibility with all 4-pin FireWire 400 interfaces.
Using this cable is easy. First, locate the 4-pin FireWire 400 interface on one device, like a DV camera. Then, plug the 4-pin end of the cable into it. Next, find the 9-pin FireWire 800 interface on the other device, such as a PC, and connect the 9-pin end of the cable to it. Make sure the connections are secure. When using, keep in mind that the data transfer rate depends on your system. To maintain the cable, avoid bending it sharply or pulling it forcefully. Store it in a cool, dry place when not in use. Also, don't expose it to extreme temperatures or moisture.
