| | FireWire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | FireWire was developed by Apple Computer in the 1990s, after work defining a slower version of the interface by the IEEE 1394 working committee in the 1980s. |  | | FireWire, with the help of software, is well-suited for creating ad-hoc (terminals only, no routers) computer networks. |  | | FireWire (also known as i.Link or IEEE 1394) is a personal computer (and digital audio/video) serial bus interface standard, offering high-speed communications and isochronous real-time data services. |

| | 21st-Why FireWire is Hot! Hot! Hot! |
 | | With FireWire, the link from the DVC camcorder into the computer is direct. |  | | Hopefully, FireWire's acceptance also means the end of some truly brain dead consumer electronics interfaces, like the ubiquitous Toslink found on many laser discs and CD players; as well as a hopeful farewell to SP/DIF (Sony/Philips Data Interface). |  | | So computer designers using FireWire are probably be wise to modify their PCI connections accordingly. |

| | FireWire - a Whatis.com definition |
 | | FireWire is Apple Computer's version of a standard, IEEE 1394, High Performance Serial Bus, for connecting devices to your personal computer. |  | | FireWire can work with the latest internal computer bus standard, Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI), but higher data transfer rates may require special design considerations to minimize undesired buffering for transfer rate mismatches. |  | | Because IEEE 1394 is a peer-to-peer interface, one camcorder can dub to another without being plugged into a computer. |

 | | FireWire and USB are both widely used in the computer and consumer electronics industries. |  | | FireWire, IEEE-1394 or iLINK are all different names for the same high-speed digital technology that enables consumer electronics to easily interface with computer products. |  | | Firewire originally was developed by Apple Computer, Inc. as a high speed serial bus. |

| | Firewire |
 | | FireWire is also a hot plug-and-play technology, which means that a device can be disconnected and then reconnected without the need to restart the computer. |  | | FireWire is a cross-platform implementation of the high-speed serial data bus -- defined by IEEE Standard 1394 that can move large amounts of data between computers and peripheral devices. |  | | FireWire is fast--it can transfer digital data at 200 megabits per second, with a planned increase to 400 megabits per second and beyond. |

| | Videoguys' FireWire Q&A |
 | | FireWire drives, webcams, and scanners are now available, but EIDE has emerged as the king for computer storage. |  | | When the FireWire concept was first announced a few years ago, it was envisioned that it would become a new standard that would replace SCSI and link all our consumer electronics equipment and computers together. |  | | They are much less expensive then hardware CODEC based cards because they rely on software compression and the speed and power of your computer to digitize and edit the footage. |

 | | An example: a large number of the new Apple Cube computers could be linked via FireWire to make the world's fastest commercially available process sharing system. |  | | With nothing more than a FireWire cable, you can take advantage of FireWire Target Disk Mode to link two FireWire equipped computers together and transfer files between them quickly and easily. |  | | Applications that benefit from 1394 include nonlinear (digital) video presentation and editing, desktop and commercial multimedia publishing, faster document imaging, home and presentation theater multimedia and plug and play personal desktop computing. |

 | | Enter "IEEE 1394," a high-speed serial bus cable designed by Apple specifically to provide a cheap digital interface for consumer-grade products. |  | | The new proposal, mLAN, leapfrogs the current limitations of MIDI by incorporating not just command and controller data (which is not very bandwidth intensive) but as many as 32 channels of digital audio as well. |  | | Just to impress upon you how cheap FireWire is to include in consumer devices, the original serial bus was based on the port found on the Nintendo Gameboy. |
