StarTech 3 Port FireWire PCIe Adapter Card

Add 2 native FireWire 800 ports to your computer through a PCI Express expansion slot

This 3 Port PCI Express FireWire adapter card can be installed in a PCI Express slot to add two IEEE1394b (FireWire 800 – 9 pin) ports and one IEEE1394a (FireWire 400 – 6 pin) port, providing broad compatibility with a wide range of FireWire devices (e.g. DV camcorders, external hard drives, digital cameras, etc.).

The 2b, 1a card features a native (single chip) PCI Express chipset – resulting in faster, more reliable and cost effective performance than expansion cards that utilize a “bridge” chip.
