High
speed plug-and-play connectivity for SCSI peripherals.
The
Microtech FireSCSI Xpress adapter enables existing and new
high-speed SCSI peripherals to be attached to the FireWire®
(IEEE -1394) port of a Macintosh or Windows PC. The
FireSCSI Xpress adapter uniquely blends the high speed
data transfer rate and the plug and play capabilities of
FireWire technology with the versatility of the SCSI
interface to provide easy to use, high performance,
external peripheral connectivity. Ideal for Apple G3/G4,
iMac DV, or any FireWire equipped PC.

Installation
is simple. No add-in cards and no need to open the system.
Just connect the FireSCSI Xpress adapter to the SCSI
device and plug the FireWire connector into the FireWire
port of a Mac or PC. The FireSCSI Xpress adapter is
designed to take advantage of the SBP2 compliant driver
support included in the Mac OS 9.0.4, X, Windows 98 SE, and
Windows 2000, XP operating systems.
Building
upon Microtech's widely accepted external USB and SCSI
port interfacing technologies, the FireSCSI Xpress adapter
once again offers industry leading performance,
compatibility, and overall reliability.

General Overview
The
FireSCSI Xpress adapter is configured with an Apple SCSI-style
DB25 female connector for the peripheral interface and a type B
IEEE-1394 connector for the host interface. Using the
appropriate cable, the FireSCSI Xpress can be interfaced to
either 4 or 6 pin IEEE-1394 host ports. An LED indicates power
and activity on the SCSI bus. The FireSCSI Xpress adapter can
run from either IEEE-1394 cable power or SCSI termination power.
A power input connector is also provided to allow an external
power source.
