DeLOCK 90738 PCIe Firewire Adapter Internal IEEE 1394 Red

The DeLOCK 90738 PCIe FireWire adapter adds two external FireWire 800 ports and one external FireWire 400 port to a desktop PC. The adapter uses a native PCI Express chipset (not a bridge chipset) and is designed for connecting FireWire devices such as external enclosures, digital cameras, camcorders and adapters. The card is supplied with a power cable adapter for devices that require additional power and features a red bracket with stainless steel finish.

Advantages

The card provides IEEE 1394 (FireWire) connectivity via a PCIe 1.1 host interface and supports direct connection of multiple FireWire peripherals. Its native PCI Express chipset improves compatibility and performance compared with bridge solutions. An on-board 4‑pin internal power connector and included adapter allow powering higher-draw devices. The stainless steel/red design matches systems where bracket colour or finish is relevant.

How to use

Power down the PC and insert the DeLOCK 90738 into an available PCIe slot on the motherboard. Secure the card to the chassis with the bracket screw. If connected FireWire devices require extra power, attach the supplied power adapter to the card's 4‑pin internal power connector and connect it to an appropriate power source inside the PC. After powering on, install any required drivers for your operating system (Windows or Linux) and connect FireWire devices to the external ports.

Recommendations

Use the internal power connector when connecting bus-powered FireWire devices that do not function reliably from the card's bus power alone. Ensure the PC is switched off and unplugged before installing the card or attaching the power adapter. For professional audio/video use, verify driver compatibility with your OS and recording software.
