J7, J8, J9 for Firewire

Each of the Firewire ports - compliant with the IEEE 1394 OHCI standard - is a high speed bus that supports
data transfer rates up to 400Mbps (100/200/400 Mbps selectable) and delivers more than 30 times the
bandwidth of the popular USB peripheral standard. Each of these ports can be used to connect up to 63
external devices, support “hot plug-and-play” and provide power supply to peripherals through an internal
DC/DC converter (that is specifically used to isolate power between the physical layer and the host
computer). The Firewire bus is Power Class 1.
