IEEE1394


The IEEE1394 interface, also known as FireWire, is more commonly associated with the attachment of peripheral devices, such as digital cameras or printers, than network connections. However, it is possible to create small networks with IEEE1394 cables. The IEEE1394 interface comes in a 4- or 6-pin version, both of which are shown in Figure 9
