"This newer version of firewire cable assemblies utilizes a 9 position connector that is compliant with the IEEE-1394b standard. They are ideal for connecting newer equipment with the 9 position connector and can double the transmission rates of the traditional IEEE-1394a cable assemblies. Cable construction features two individually shielded 26 AWG data pairs plus two 22 AWG power conductors with an overall foil/braid shield and molded backshells.
