The  HDV/DV connector of this unit is an i.LINK 
compliant connector. This section explains the 
specifications and features of i.LINK.

i.LINK is a digital serial interface designed to integrate 
devices equipped with i.LINK connectors. i.LINK allows 
your device to:
- Perform two-way transmission and reception of data 

such as digital audio and digital video signals.

- Control other i.LINK devices.
- Easily connect multiple devices with a single i.LINK 

cable.

Your i.LINK device is capable of connecting to a wide 
range of digital AV devices for data transfer and other 
operations.
Other advantages include the following feature. When 
connected to multiple i.LINK devices, your i.LINK device 
can perform data transfer and other operations not only 
with the directly connected devices but also with any of the 
devices that are connected to those devices. Therefore, you 
do not need to be concerned with device connection order.
However, depending on the features and specifications of 
the connected devices, you may need to use certain 
functions differently, and you may not be able to transfer 
data or perform certain operations.

i.LINK, a nickname for IEEE 1394 proposed by Sony, is a 
trademark supported by many companies worldwide.
IEEE 1394 is an international standard defined by IEEE, 
the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc.

The unit can be connected to one device with the i.LINK 
cable (DV cable). When you connect with a device that has 
two or more i.LINK connectors, refer to the operating 
instructions supplied with the connected device.

i.LINK defines maximum data transfer speeds of 
approximately 100, 200 and 400 Mbps

 1)

 that are referred 

to as S100, S200 and S400 respectively.
The maximum data transfer speed that an i.LINK device 
supports is identified on the specifications page of the 
operating instructions supplied with the device or near its 
i.LINK connector.
When you connect a device that supports different data 
transfer speeds, the actual data transfer speeds may be 
different from those indicated on the i.LINK connectors.

1) What is Mbps?
Megabits per second. A measure of the rate at which data 
is transmitted per second. In case of 100 Mbps, 100 
Megabits of data can be transmitted per second.

For details on operation when other equipment with an 
i.LINK connector is connected, see “Connection Using 
i.LINK” (page 55), “Digital Dubbing” (page 64).
For details on connection with an i.LINK cable and the 
necessary software, refer to the operating instructions 
supplied with the connected device.
