• FWB2IDE01AP support two IDE (ATA/ATAPI) devices.

FWB2IDE01AP is a FireWire800 (IEEE 1394b) to IDE (ATA/ATAPI) Bridge Board featuring INITIO inic-2430L, FireWire800 (IEEE 1394b) to IDE (ATA/ATAPI) Bridge Controller and Texas Instrument's new IEEE 1394b 800Mbps PHY (TSB81BA3)

FWB2IDE01AP is ideally suited for tailgating interfaces such as removable-media drives CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, tape drive, and hard disk drive. It allows IDE drives (Master and Slave) to be connected to FireWire800 (IEEE 1394b) serial bus in a plug-and-play fashion. Both ATA and ATAPI devices are supported using the same firmware.

FWB2IDE01AP provides the perfect solution for data backup and transferring of data between computers using IDE (ATA/ATAPI) devices.
