The FirePRO™ LDR (long distance repeater), designed and manufactured by Point Grey Research, is a reliable and cost effective solution
for applications that require IEEE 1394 devices to be extended beyond
the standard 4.5m cable length. Using a Gigabit Ethernet physical layer
to transport FireWire data using GigE signalling, the FirePRO LDR (Long
Distance Repeater) can be used to transmit and receive 1394b 800 Mb/s
data over 100 meters of standard Category5e (Cat5e) cable. This allows
users to construct a reliable, high-speed FireWire-based network of
multiple cameras that is physically separated by up to 100 meters from
the host system.
