Product details

6-Position IEEE 1394 Receptacle for Board-Edge Mount

It mates with standard IEEE 1394 plugs, making it a direct replacement for legacy Firewire ports on audio/video interfaces, industrial cameras, or test equipment that still use the 1394a standard. The 1.5A per contact rating and 40VAC voltage limit are typical for the signal and power lines in a Firewire bus — the current is adequate for the 8-40V power pair defined in the spec, but not for high-power peripherals.

Frequently asked questions

Can I replace a failed Firewire connector with 5788516-1?

Yes, the 5788516-1 is a direct-form-factor replacement for a standard IEEE 1394a right-angle receptacle. It mates with any IEEE 1394 plug. Confirm the board footprint matches the 6-pin through-hole layout before ordering.
