IEEE 1394a

IEEE 1394a, also known as FireWire, is a high-speed technology used to connect digital devices such as cameras, external hard drives, and computers. It allows for fast data transfer, often at speeds up to 400 Mbps, enabling quick and efficient sharing of large files like videos and images. The technology supports daisy-chaining multiple devices together using a standardized, reliable connection. Widely used in professional video production and data transfer scenarios, IEEE 1394a provides a stable and efficient way to connect compatible hardware without relying on slower, older interfaces like USB 1.1.
