Sonnet adds FireWire 400 PCI card
By ron carlson, Insanely Great Mac

Put more ports into your Mac with this $40 upgrade
Sonnet has announced the Allegro FW400 FireWire PCI adapter card, the latest addition
to Sonnet's line of FireWire adapter cards. This card installs into any available PCI
slot of a PowerMac and instantly adds the FireWire connections needed to connect
high-speed digital peripherals.
The Allegro FW400 has three six-pin external FireWire ports and performs at the data
transfer rate of up to 400 Mbits/s, and can connect up to 63 devices. It is compatible
with OS 9 or higher, including OS X.
The Allegro FW400 is tagged to sell for $39.95 (SRP) and will be available on March 31
(Monday).
Editor's note: This looks like a company rotating a new model into their catalog and
not a company arriving to the party late. As FireWire 800 products begin hitting the
channel (a slew are expected within the next month or so), makers of FireWire 400
chipsets will phase out "legacy" products and make final adjustments to those that
will continue. Thereupon, OEM outfits like Sonnet will be refreshing their end-user
products in order to stay current.
