Akasa EX1394I-40 IEEE 1394 FireWire Extension Cable 40 cm (0.4 m) 6-pin Male to Female Black

The Akasa EX1394I-40 is a high-quality IEEE 1394 FireWire extension cable designed to extend the reach of your FireWire 400 (IEEE 1394a) connections. With a length of 40 cm (0.4 m), this cable provides a reliable and secure connection for devices such as camcorders, external hard drives, and audio interfaces. It features a 6-pin male connector on one end and a 6-pin female connector on the other, allowing you to easily extend existing FireWire cables or connect devices with limited reach.

Advantages

This extension cable offers several benefits: it maintains high-speed data transfer rates up to 400 Mbps, supports both data and power transfer, and is double shielded (foil and braid) to minimize electromagnetic interference. The nickel-plated connectors ensure corrosion resistance and a stable connection. Its compact 40 cm length is ideal for tight spaces or when you need just a little extra reach without excess cable clutter.

Suitable for

• Extending FireWire 6-pin connections for camcorders, external hard drives, audio interfaces, and other FireWire devices
• Connecting FireWire peripherals to computers or hubs when the original cable is too short
• Use in professional audio/video setups, data transfer, and device charging
