Connection to a Macintosh computer
Notes
• You can connect the interface cable to either IEEE1394 port on the CRW2200IX drive.
• The IEEE1394 standard defines the maximum cable length of a single interface cable as 4.5
meters. Bear this in mind if using an interface cable longer than the included one.
If your computer has a 4-pin IEEE1394 port connector (especially common on
notebook computers), use a cable with a 6-pin connector on one end and a 4-pin
connector on the other.
