EXSYS FireWire 800 (IEEE 1394b) -kaapeli, 9-pin - 4-pin, 5,0 m, musta EX-K6873

Connecting a FireWire 800 device to a legacy FireWire 400 port often means juggling adapters or settling for slower speeds. The EXSYS FireWire 1394B Cable eliminates that hassle with a direct 9-pin to 4-pin link, letting you bridge generations of hardware without extra dongles. At 5 meters long, it reaches across desks, racks, or studio setups, while double shielding and nickel-plated plugs keep your data clean at up to 800 Mbps.

Who is it for

This cable is ideal for video editors, audio engineers, and IT technicians who work with mixed FireWire equipment. If you have an older camcorder, external drive, or audio interface with a 4-pin port and a newer computer or hub with a 9-pin FireWire 800 port, this cable connects them directly. It is also a solid choice for anyone who needs a longer FireWire run without signal loss or interference.

Tips

Before buying, check the ports on both devices: the 9-pin end goes into a FireWire 800 port, and the 4-pin end goes into a FireWire 400 port. The cable is hot-swappable, so you can connect or disconnect devices while they are powered on, but always eject drives safely before unplugging to avoid data corruption. For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel to power cords or near strong magnetic fields.
