This FireWire adapter card is designed for computers that lack built-in FireWire ports, allowing users to connect a variety of FireWire devices. It provides two high-speed FireWire 800 ports and one FireWire 400 port, making it suitable for older and newer devices alike. The card is ideal for professionals who use digital video equipment, external storage, or other FireWire-compatible peripherals. Its native PCI Express chipset ensures stable and efficient performance without the need for additional bridge components.
The card supports transfer rates of up to 800 Mbps for the FireWire 800 ports and 400 Mbps for the FireWire 400 port. This makes it well-suited for data-intensive tasks such as video editing or transferring large files. The native chipset also reduces latency and improves reliability compared to cards that use a bridge chip. The internal power connector allows for the use of high-powered FireWire devices without the need for an external power source.
Installation is straightforward with the included low profile/half-height bracket, which fits into most standard PCI Express slots. The card is compatible with a wide range of desktop computers that support PCI Express expansion slots. It is particularly useful for users who need to connect legacy FireWire devices to modern systems that no longer include these ports.
The card comes with all necessary components for installation, including the bracket and mounting hardware. No additional software or drivers are required, as it works with standard operating systems. Users should ensure their system has an available PCI Express slot before purchasing.
