Datavideo FireWire IEEE 1394 Repeater Hub 6 Port
We're sorry this product has been discontinued. Please choose from the menu on the left for alternative products.
Synchrotech's 6 Port Repeater Hub provides seamless port expansion on any FireWire® IEEE 1394 device chain. The multi-platform device provides six 6 pin IEEE 1394 ports with a maximum throughput of up to 400 Mbps each. Each port also features over current protection. The Hub utilizes IEEE 1394 bus power, or accepts the included optional power adapter for use with devices requiring more power. Repeater hubs provide bus flexibility in that they allow for daisy chaining and/or hierarchical (tree) bus configurations. Repeater hubs also provide a means to lengthen the distance between devices when 1394's cable length of 4.5 meters (15 feet) is inadequate. Simply daisy chain repeaters between cables to extend your reach to 72m.
