FireWire

FireWire, also known as IEEE 1394, is a high-speed connection standard used to transfer data between computers and peripheral devices like cameras, external hard drives, and audio equipment. It allows for fast, reliable data transfer, often outperforming older connections like USB in certain tasks. FireWire supports multiple devices simultaneously and can transfer large files quickly, making it popular in professional multimedia and editing environments. Its design ensures steady communication without interruption, and it’s known for its robust performance and ease of connecting multiple devices in a daisy-chain configuration.
