Overview
IEEE-1394b is the latest in FireWire technology, and our IEEE-1394b or FireWire 800 cable provides transfer speeds up to a blazing 800 Mbps! This is twice the speed of the original 1394 standard, and is a real must-have for transporting and networking multiple types of digital data between users and systems. Digital Video (DV) camcorders, scanners, printers, videoconferencing cameras, and fixed disk drives can all share a common bus connection not only to a PC, but to each other as well.
With Windows® ME® or Apple's FireWire Target Disk Mode you can use an IEEE-1394b cable to connect two computers together to enable filesharing.
Hot-pluggable, our FireWire supports plug-and-play operation. This cable is designed to be 100% compatible with Apple® FireWire®, Sony® iLink®, and all other IEEE-1394 peripherals; also compatible with PC, Mac®, Sun® and other IEEE-1394 equipped computers. Twisted pair cabling and shielded construction ensure our IEEE-1394b cable meets or exceeds current IEEE-1394b standards. Molded strain relief ensures years of trouble-free data transmissions. When connecting to 1394a legacy devices, the data transfer speed is 400 Mbps due to 1394a limitations.

Comments about 3m IEEE-1394b FireWire® 800 9-pin to 6-pin Cable (9.8ft):
Cable is to short for Digital photography with a PhaseOne back. I think that 5m should be the minimum.
You really dont have enough cable if you are high on a ladder and the computer on the ground.

Comments about 3m IEEE-1394b FireWire® 800 9-pin to 6-pin Cable (9.8ft):
Only thing lacking was another choice of length for the cable - would have liked to have had a 10' or 12' length. Also, the connector on the MacBook side was a little loose, but stayed in the computer. Overall, though, a great solution for connecting your legacy FW devices to newer MacBooks!
