Newnex FireWire-CAT5 Repeater

The world's first FireWire repeater using Cat 5 cabling that supports FULL FireWire 400 (1394a) speeds! 

  The Newnex FireNEX-CAT5 is an IEEE1394a/b compliant repeater for long distance connections. Capable of sending IEEE1394 signals across a regular Cat5e or Cat6 cables at a data rate of 400 Mbps (1394a) up to 85 meters in length! The FireNEX-CAT5 S400 is contained within a small box slightly larger than a deck of cards, which makes it unobtrusive and compact, allowing you to place it on a desktop already crowded with other things. 

 Setting up the FireNEX-CAT5 is easy!  It only takes minutes, and like all IEEE1394 compliant hardware... there is no configuration necessary!  Just connect a Cat5e twisted pair cable between the two units, connect your FireWire devices and power up!  The FireNEX-CAT5 S400 is compatible with both 1394a (FireWire 400) and 1394b (FireWire 800) signals at speeds up to 400 Mbps.

 A FireNEX-CAT5 S400 "set" is a pair of FireNEX-CAT5 repeaters, and the user  manual.   Innovative design allows the units to be bus powered (from the connected equipment).  A built in DC power jack lets you connect an optional power supply in connecting to devices that do not supply power through the FireWire interface (sold below). The Newnex FireNEX-CAT5 S400 comes with one-year manufacturer warranty.
