Fireboard 800 Glass Optical Fiber (LC-type) to PCI Host Adapter


Fireboard 800 GOF-LC™ is a IEEE-1394b (Firewire 800) to PCI Host adapter, which has been designed to meet the most demanding requirements of today’s 1394b bus designs. Through the Glass Optical Fiber (GOF) port type LC, the S800 (800Mbps) transmission of 1394b bus extends up to 550 meters distance. The Fireboard 800 GOF-LC™ has two (2) 1394b bilingual copper ports and one optical port LC type.

Fireboard 800 GOF-LC™ is a 64bit PCI OHCI Host Adapter capable of exceptional 800Mbit/sec performance, providing the throughput and bandwidth to move data efficiently and quickly between the PCI and 1394 bus. This board also provides outstanding ultra-low power operation and intelligent power management capabilities, being compliant with all the latest 1394, OHCI and PCI specification/standards.

Fireboard 800 GOF-LC™ operates as the interface between a selectable 64-bit 33-MHz or 32-bit 33-MHz PCI Local Bus and a compatible 1394b bus. Its PHY-layer device is capable supporting serial data rates of s400 and s800.
