MultiDyne DV-1394 - Manual (Page 3)

optical connection is without confusion or difficulty. It takes only minutes to setup, and there is no
configuration necessary, like all IEEE1394 compliant hardware. The DV-1394 is IEEE 1394b
compliant, but currently only uses IEEE 1394a connectors.
IEEE1394 Technology
The IEEE 1394 bus addresses interconnection of both PC peripherals and consumer electronics
with these features:
•
Supports up to 63 peer-to-peer devices
•
Operates at speeds of 100 Mbps to 200 Mbps with IEEE1394a.
•
Support both asynchronous and isochronous data transfer
Using the DV-1394
Installation:
1. Connect one DV-1394 to the host system with the IEEE1394 Copper cable
2. Using the 62.5/125 MMF MTRJ connector fiber optic cables to connect the two DV-1394
together
3. Power the second DV-1394 with the power adapter that come with the package 4. Connect
the IEEE1394 peripherals to the second DV-1394 5. Operate the IEEE1394 peripherals just like it's
directly connected to the host
system
DV-1394 operates at temperatures between -20° to +65° C (-4° to 150° F). DV-1394 should place in
a dry place with airflow. Do not place the DV-1394 on top of equipments that produce heat.
