VS-66FW 6 Port FireWire Switcher

The Kramer VS-66FW is a high quality 6 port matrix switcher for routing 1394/FireWire interface signals. The VS- 66FW operates bi-directionally and offers automatic branch/leaf configuration. It can be operated with FireWire™/i.Link™ implementation of the IEEE 1394-1995 and the IEEE 1394A standards at data rates of up to 400Mbits/sec. The VS-66FW supports isochronous and asynchronous transfers, as well as all the features of the 1394/FireWire interface, including hot insertion and removal,  and it can source the power to all ports. The VS-66FW can be controlled via the front panel buttons, the infra-red remote control transmitter, and remotely by RS-485 or RS-232 serial commands transmitted by a touch screen system, PC, or other serial controller. A large, bright LED display on the front panel shows the current status of the matrix, and the built-in non-volatile memory stores and retrieves pre-set configurations. The VS-66FW is housed in a 19" 1U rack-mountable enclosure.
