Overview
"Y" Not Have it Both Ways?
Are you a longtime Mac user? If so, you've probably purchased a few peripherals along the way—devices like DV camcorders, external drives, and even an old iPod® or two—and some of them probably have FireWire 400 interfaces (a.k.a. IEEE 1394a and iLink®). Your older Mac probably had at least two FireWire ports, so connecting more than one of those devices at the same time was easy. But, if you've purchased a new iMac, Mac mini, or MacBook Pro in the last couple of years, you may have run into a couple of problems when you tried to connect those great devices—there's only one FireWire port, and the connectors didn't match! Sonnet's Yin•Yang FireWire 800 to FireWire 400/800 mini hub solves both problems.
Yin•Yang plugs into the single FireWire 800 (IEEE 1394b) port found on most new Mac computers and enables you to connect and use a FireWire 400 device (the Yin) and a FireWire 800 device (the Yang) at the same time. Yin•Yang doesn't need one power adapter, yet it will support a bus-powered 2.5" drive on either port. Fully IEEE 1394 compliant, this mini hub requires no drivers, supports all industry standard FireWire peripherals, and allows you to plug in and disconnect devices without shutting off your computer.
Yin•Yang is very small and rugged. The hub housing is about the size of a matchbox, and the attached cable is only three inches long. Whether you use Yin•Yang at home or on the road, you'll get expanded connectivity for all of your FireWire devices.
Provides a simple way to connect both a FireWire 400 device and a FireWire 800 device at the same time to a single FireWire 800 port on your computer
Supports concurrent data transfers to and from two attached devices at 800 Mb/s and 400 Mb/s, respectively
Operates without an external power supply
Supports one bus-powered device on either port
Allows you to plug in and disconnect peripherals without shutting off your computer
Small and rugged—the hub case measures just 1.9" x 1.5" x .6", and the attached cable 3" long
