1394 in 2005: 1394c and Wireless 1394 Join the Mix
In-Stat/MDR, May 2005, Pages: 43
IEEE 1394 (1394), also called FireWire or i.Link, is a high-speed serial bus specification found in four primary markets: PCs, PC peripherals, Consumer Electronics (CE) and Automotive.
Over the last year, CE devices have continued to be a solid market for 1394, led by digital televisions, digital camcorders, and DVD recorders. 1394 is growing in the PC space, with the consumer desktop and notebook segments leading the way. PC peripherals constitute a shrinking market for 1394, due primarily to the success of high-speed USB. The first after market car audio system with 1394 was released in late 2004.
Wireless 1394, a specification to transmit 1394 wirelessly over Ultra Wideband (UWB), is proceeding. The 1394 Trade Association is working with two groups on separate UWB solutions. Wireless 1394 will be optimized for in-room ad-hoc connections between devices.
The 1394c standard should receive final approval before the end of 2005. A way for the 1394 protocol to run on an Ethernet Phy, 1394c is an attempt to jump-start 1394 as a networking technology, where it has had trouble gaining acceptance.
This report contains analysis and five-year forecasts for all 1394-enabled products. The report breaks out each application forecast by penetration of 1394a, 1394b and Wireless 1394. Responses on 1394 from In-Stat's annual Residential Technology Survey are also included in the report. Brief profiles of major 1394 silicon and IP suppliers are also provided.
