3-Port FireWire 800/1394b Professional PCI Host Adapter Interface

Fueling Your Digital World!

Of course you should, and with NitroAV FireWire 800 PCI Cards, and here's why:

FireWire 800 is backward compatible, meaning your legacy devices will work with the new hardware. But if you plug a FireWire "A" device into a 800 port, you'll have to do so with special, pricey "bilingual" cables that include the new 9-pin connectors, and you'll also impact the performance of other truly 800 devices in the chain. The NitroAV 3-port card is the FireWire card available that allows you to maintain your investment in legacy FireWire devices without buying additional equipment.
