I have a case that has a front IEEE 1394 port and the connector is a multi
pin socket - basically is it meant to be connected to the corresponding
pinout on the mboard.
Now my mboard does not have 1394 ports installed, and I am looking at buying
a PCI card that has rear ports and an internal pinout so that I can
utilize my front port. But the problem is I cannot find such a card in any
of the stores that I looked at. All the cards that have 1 internal port is a
regular internal 1394 port (probably to be connected to an internal hard
disk?) but not a pinout.
Can anyone point to such a PCI card that has external 1394 ports and one
internal pinout similar to a mboard so that I can connect the cable to it?
Any manufacturers/online places that I need to look at?
Or is there any adapter that can be used to connect the connector to the
internal port?
Thanks for any info.
