Firewire To Ultra SCSI Converter Adapter

FireWire Plug & Play connectivity for Ultra-SCSI devices! Hook up existing SCSI devices to FireWire port

The New iConn External FireWire-to-SCSI Adapter Enables UltraSCSI Connectivity in FireWire-Equipped Macintoshes & PCs. Performance Nearly 10 Time Faster than USB-to-SCSI Converters!

Initio Corp., a leading maker of input/output (I/O) solutions for computers and peripherals has done it again!

The new Initio iConn(TM) FireWire-to-SCSI adapter enables an array of UltraSCSI and FireWire peripherals to connect simultaneously to FireWire-equipped Microsoft Windows based and Apple Macintosh computers, at data speeds nearly 10 times faster than what USB-to-SCSI converters deliver

An IEEE 1394.a-compliant external device measuring just 2.5"(W)x2.75"(L)x.75"(H), the iConn adapter features one 50-pin UltraSCSI connector and two FireWire ports, allowing IT professionals to mix and match SCSI and FireWire peripherals.

The iConn adapter, therefore, extends the capabilities of readily available and widely deployed SCSI storage devices: disk, removable media optical, CD-ROM and CD-RW drives all without the need for cumbersome, distance-limited SCSI cables. These peripherals can be "daisy-chained" just as they are when connected to a computer's SCSI port; FireWire peripherals can be daisy-chained, as well.

Using the 6-pin FireWire ports on Windows and Macintosh PowerBook 2000, PowerMac G3/G4, PowerMac Cube, iMac DV and iBook DV for these drives, the computers' overall performance improves, allowing the SCSI peripherals to realize more of their rated 20MB/sec speeds.

Commitment to FireWire Movement:
The Initio iConn adapter is the second advanced FireWire solution Initio has introduced recently. The company in December debuted the INIC-1420, Initio's first fully functional link controller to provide the FireWire interface to UDMA 66 and ATAPI peripheral designs.

Connectivity options:
Plugs into high-density 50-pin SCSI connector - no SCSI cable required. Plug-and-play play required drivers already pre-installed in the Windows(95, 98, 2000) and Macintosh (MacOS 9.0.4 or later) operating systems.
