The IEEE 1394 High Performance
Serial Bus is a versatile, high-speed and low cost
method for transferring digital data between personal
computer peripherals and consumer electronic devices.
IEEE 1394 can transport data at 100/200/400 Mbps.
They called it "Fire Wire".
The Firewire connection system, like the USB
system, is hot-plug: you can add or remove
the peripheral connection without having to
reboot the computer. |
