"IEEE 1394b Cables by Cables To Go are the latest in Firewire technology. IEEE 1394b or Firewire 800 provides transfer speeds up to a blazing 800Mbps! This is twice the speed of the original 1394 standard. 1394b is a must-have for transporting and networking multiple types of digital data between users and systems. Digital Video (DV) camcorders, scanners, printers, videoconferencing cameras, and fixed-disk drives can all share a common bus connection not only to a PC, but to each other as well. With Windows Me(R) or Apple's FireWire Target Disk Mode you can use an IEEE-1394b cable to connect two computers together to allow for file sharing.
