InLine FireWire 400 naar 800 1394b-kabel (4/9-pins stekker, 1,8 m), zwart

InLine FireWire 400 to 800 1394b Cable (4/9 Pin Male, 1.8 m) adapts devices with a 4-pin FireWire (IEEE 1394a, 400 Mbit/s) connector to controllers using a 9-pin FireWire 800 (IEEE 1394b, 800 Mbit/s) port. FireWire 800 controllers are downward compatible, so this cable enables connection and data transfer from FireWire 400 devices to FireWire 800 ports. The cable is double-shielded and supplied in black.

Advantages

The adapter cable provides a direct Male-to-Male connection between 4-pin and 9-pin FireWire interfaces and supports reliable data transfer for compatible devices. Double shielding reduces electromagnetic interference for stable signal quality. The 1.8 m length balances reach and manageable cable routing while the lightweight design simplifies installation and handling.

Key specifications

How to use

Plug the 4-pin male connector into the FireWire 400 device and the 9-pin male connector into the FireWire 800 port on the controller or host device. Ensure both connected devices are powered according to their specifications before data transfer. After connection, the host system should recognise the peripheral; follow the operating system prompts for device use or driver installation if required.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel to power lines or sources of strong electromagnetic interference. Use a direct, undamaged cable and avoid sharp bends near the connectors. Verify that connected devices support the required FireWire modes and that any necessary drivers are installed on the host system.
