Firewire is also known as I-link or IEEE1394 and is high speed (400Mbps). Almost standard on all Digital Video Cameras and offers a standardised easy to use plug and play method of connecting peripherals to your PC/Mac. Slightly slower than USBv2 (480Mbps) but often more reliable which comes from the internationally recognised standard (IEEE). IEEE1394b is available which is twice as fast (800Mbps). The 6 connector on Firewire is the standard for most PC s and is a larger block
The 4 connector on Firewire is the smaller connection 6 to 4 usually connects the DV-out on a video camera to most PC s with Firewire ports (PCI and PCMCIA cards are available) and some other video editing devices. It can also be used for other peripheral connection (some Firewire scanners external drives etc)
