EXSYS FireWire 1394b Cable 9-Pin to 9-Pin, 3.0 m (EX-K6852)

High-speed data transfers between FireWire 800 devices often hit a bottleneck when cables are too short or poorly shielded, leading to dropped connections and sluggish performance. The EXSYS EX-K6852 solves this by providing a 3-metre, double-shielded 9-pin to 9-pin FireWire 1394b cable that maintains a stable 800 Mbps link for external storage, audio interfaces, and video capture gear.

Who is it for

This cable is ideal for creative professionals, video editors, and IT technicians who need a reliable, longer FireWire 800 connection between computers and peripherals such as external hard drives, camcorders, or audio interfaces. It suits anyone upgrading from shorter cables or replacing worn-out FireWire leads in studio or office environments.

Main features
