The company Symwave has demonstrated FirePHY-1600 which lets you transfer data on the Firewire bus at 1600 Mbits/s.
This chip is the first to use the new Firewire standard which we have already spoken about. Of course, this chip is also compatible with the 400 and 800 standards , downwards compatibility is mandatory for success.
This product will be introduced this week at the 1394 Congress, which sets the Firewire standard .
