Introduction

This 3 Port PCI Express FireWire adapter card can be installed in a PCI Express slot to add two IEEE1394b (FireWire 800 - 9 pin) ports and one IEEE1394a (FireWire 400 - 6 pin) port, providing broad compatibility with a wide range of FireWire devices (e.g. DV camcorders, external hard drives, digital cameras, etc.).

The 2b, 1a card features a native (single chip) PCI Express chipset - resulting in faster, more reliable and cost effective performance than expansion cards that utilize a "bridge" chip.

Benefits

• Add 3 FireWire ports to a standard or small form factor (SFF) computer with support for high-powered FireWire devices
• Utilizes a native PCI Express chipset design rather than a bridge chip, ensuring a fast, reliable and cost-effective FireWire expansion
• Backed by a StarTech.com lifetime warranty and free lifetime technical support

Features

• Two 9-pin FireWire 800 ports, each with transfer rates up to 800Mbps
• One 6-pin FireWire 400 port, each with transfer rates up to 400Mbps
• Built with a native PCI Express chipset, no bridge chip
• Includes low profile/half-height installation bracket
• Internal power connector for high powered FireWire devices
• Compliant with IEEE 1394b and backwards compatible with IEEE 1394a - 2000 as well as 1394-1995 standards
• Plug-and-Play and hot-swap compatible
