KALEA-INFORMATIQUE PCI Express PCIe x1 Firewire 800 and 400 IEEE1394A and IEEE1394B 2+1 Output controller card with TI XIO2213BZAY chipset

Worked on Windows 11 - plugged Sony Handycam in, up came video device detected - perfect - seems like the TI (Texas Instruments FireWire controller is well supported) Great!

I looked at other PCIe FW cards claiming to be Texas Instruments chipsets. One was three times the price of this one! I wanted to have a firewire port on my new-build PC DAW for my audio interface (MOTU 828 mk3 Hybrid). I find firewire generally more reliable than USB2 in terms of audio latency. Installation in my Win 10 (I don't like Win 11) PC was very straight-forward and no drivers are needed since Windows recognises the chipset straight away and the card appears in Device Manager with no problems. I plugged up the MOTU interface and it works flawlessly. I'm now able to decrease the buffer size in my audio software and latency isn't an issue. Fantastic value card. It comes with a small (english) manual describing physical installation and verification of windows PnP. It also comes with a 1M firewire to mini-firewire (DV) cable. The cable is a 4-pin to 6-pin - IEEE1394 - iLink - old Camcorder style - DV to FW 400 - Male to Male. I didn't need the cable since I used my existing FW 800 to 800 cable for my audio interface. Easy installation in windows - true plug and play! It works with any version of Windows from 2000 onwards. You'll need a PCI Express enabled system with one available PCI Express slot. Definitely recommended if you are looking for a true TI chipset FW port. Hope I've helped with my review.

This is a legit TI chipset card that will work with your old firewire interface. It's a perfect compliment to my Mackie 1640i - works like a charm, even on Windows 11. Great product, half the price of the only similar offering from Startech. If you'e got an old firewire audio interface you want to keep using on your modern rig, this is the one you want.

Bought this to connect my Win10 PC to UAD-2 Satellite FW and it works fine.

IT'S GREAT, IT WORKS. EASY TO INSTALL. ALWAYS A RISK WHEN YOU GO RETRO, WORKS WELL WITH WINDOWS 11 THE SUPPLIED FIREWIRE CABLE WAS OF NO USE ( HENCE 4*'S) I DID HAVE A BACKUP WHICH WAS FINE. FOR ALL OUT THERE, WHO ARE BACKING UP DV FILES BUY IT.

Prima voor het digitaliseren van mijn VHS en Video8, Digital8

La scheda servirà per il collegamento 1394 firewere, acquisizione video,per il momento funziona bene, devo testare la velocità, che è il motivo dell'acquisto.

Works flawlessnessly out of the box with Ubuntu 24.04 for video capturing with DVgrab from standard repository

Compatible con ryzen serie 5000. La compré para utilizar una consola de grabación antigua firewire, la Avid Digi003 console. Funcionando con protools 2025 en Windows 11 sin instalar drivers raros ni nada.

Works like a charm for my firewire audio interface. The TI chipset really makes the difference.
