Your VAIO computer may include either 4-pin or 6-pin, or both types, of i.LINK ports.

✍i.LINK is a trademark of Sony used only to designate that a product contains an IEEE1394 connection. The i.LINK connection may vary, depending on the software applications, operating system and compatible i.LINK devices. All products with an i.LINK connection may not communicate with each other.

Please refer to the documentation that came with your compatible i.LINK device for information on operating conditions and proper connection. Before connecting compatible i.LINK PC peripherals to your system, such as an optical or hard disk drive, confirm their operating system compatibility and required operating conditions.

A 6-pin i.LINK port can:

❑supply power from the computer to the connected device if the device is equipped with a 6-pin connector.

❑supply 10V to 12V.

A 4-pin i.LINK port cannot supply power to a connected device.

The total power supplied by the 6-pin i.LINK port cannot exceed 6 watts.

The following Sony i.LINK 400 Mbps cables are available and recommended for use with your computer: VMC-IL4415, VMC-IL4435, VMC-IL4615, VMC-IL4635, VMC-IL6615, and VMC-IL6635.
