LATEST WHITE PAPER

IEEE1394: versatility, performance, security, flexibility

The advent of digital representations of all media types has fundamentally changed the way consumers use electronic products and blurred the distinction between computers and consumer electronics. Today, consumers demand products that interoperate whether a device lives in the office or the living room. IEEE 1394 remains the single best interconnect across the range of computer, data storage, consumer electronic, and service-provider supplied products in terms of performance and versatility. This paper provides a complete review of these features, including the results of recent benchmark tests and a heads-up about the future of 1394 and related products.
