What is a Firewire connection?
top Firewire, or IEEE1394, is a connection that`s being used to interface computers to digital video devices, including digital camcorders and high-end digital still cameras. It is very fast, up to 400Mbps, you can plug in after you have started up your computer and you can daisy chain multiple devices. The downside of Firewire is that you can only run about 5 meters with it. It consists of six wires: two for power, two for data and two for synchronization.
