Review on Cmple BILINGUAL FireWire Cable 15FT by Rick Everett

Revainrating 1 out of 5

You shouldn't do without quality here

I hate giving a product only one star when I was obviously looking for value for money, but this cable just didn't work. I connected my DV camcorder via a 4 pin connector to my mini mac via a 9 pin connector. I was able to control the camera from the Mac but could never get it to transfer data. I suspect it was a sloppy 9 pin connection or loose wires. Thank you Revain for the hassle free return of the cable. I immediately ordered the Apple recommended cable from Belkin and it worked straight away with no problems. When it comes to sensitive, high-speed data transmission over FireWire, the quality of the cable and connector seems to matter.

Pros
  • ERROR-FREE data transmission thanks to molded strain relief and PVC injection moulding. Offers ultra-high data transfer rates thanks to twisted pairs and maximum speed without data loss.
Cons
  • too dumb
