The Sandberg FireWire Hub enables you to connect a single FireWire port in your computer to as many as five FireWire devices at a time – and in Windows® Me and XP you can even connect to other computers in a network. There can be up to five metres between the Sandberg FireWire Hub and each device – normally there can be no  more than a total of five metres between two devices. The Sandberg FireWire Hub can also be used to connect up to five Sony PlayStation®2 consoles, allowing players to play against each other. This does, however, require that the game supports i.LINK.
