How many pins does a FireWire port have?

9-Pin Connector 9-pin connectors are part of a recent improvement to the IEEE-1394 technology, called FireWire 800 (or IEEE-1394b).

How many devices can be connected to an IEEE 1394 port?

63 devices
IEEE 1394, High Performance Serial Bus, is an electronics standard for connecting devices to your personal computer. IEEE 1394 provides a single plug-and-socket connection on which up to 63 devices can be attached with data transfer speeds up to 400 Mbps ( megabit s per second).

What is a IEEE 1394 connector used for?

FireWire, also called IEEE 1394 or i. LINK, high-speed computer data-transfer interface that was used to connect personal computers, audio and video devices, and other professional and consumer electronics. In the late 1980s the American computer and electronics company Apple Inc.

How many pins does FireWire 800 port have?

9-pin
FireWire 400 devices use a 6-pin or 4-pin connector; FireWire 800 devices use a 9-pin connector. The FireWire 400 ports on Apple systems have 6 pins, while the FireWire 800 ports have 9 pins.

What is the IEEE 1394 port?

FireWire
IEEE 1394 is an interface standard for a serial bus for high-speed communications and isochronous real-time data transfer. It was developed in the late 1980s and early 1990s by Apple in cooperation with a number of companies, primarily Sony and Panasonic. Apple called the interface FireWire.
