technology musings: FireWire 800 to FireWire 400 Cable Tip

Did you know FireWire 9-pin to 6-pin cables are the same as FireWire 6-pin to 6-pin cables? You simply flip the cable!

FireWire CablesFor an inexpensive solution for existing FireWire cables, using FireWire 800 and FireWire 400 Cable Converters and Adapter Plugs including our CAB-FW8-9-6-CONV and the CAB-FW8-6-9-CONV are fine.

On the other hand, the best solution for bridging between 6 pin FireWire 400 Ports and 9 pin FireWire 800 ports in terms of electrical and signal shielding are 9-pin to 6-pin FireWire cables. EverythingHerePlus.com features 2M (6.6F), 4.5M (14.8F), 10M (32.8F) versions of FireWire 9-pin to 6-pin cables.
