External links modified
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just modified 2 external links on IEEE 1394. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:
- Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20140404152533/http://www.1394ta.org/consumers/WhatIsFireWire.html to http://www.1394ta.org/consumers/WhatIsFireWire.html
- Added
{{dead link}}tag to ftp://ftp.t10.org/1394/P1394a/Drafts/P1394a50.pdf - Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20100527214340/http://www.fcc.gov/mb/engineering/part76.pdf to http://www.fcc.gov/mb/engineering/part76.pdf
When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

Possible original research
"FireWire is capable of safely operating critical systems due to the way multiple devices interact with the bus and how the bus allocates bandwidth to the devices"
This is unsupported by a reference and the rest of the paragraph implies that the standard is used for aircraft controls by linking the ability for isochronous communications in IEEE 1394 with the general use of isochronous communications in aircraft systems.
Now, I have no idea whether aircraft use 1394 to perform these types of communications, but the article does not cite a suitable reference to support this.
Superceding SCSI - NOT
The article claims that IEEE 1394 is the successor to Parallel SCSI. It is not. SAS and SATA are the successors, especially in the largest-volume markets for storage devices: those of desktop PCs and servers (which also use FC). The claim might be true in the Apple universe, where Apple just had to make it the successor. It will be difficult to find market share (of actual satellite devices) in numbers and currency after such a long time. The numbers for computers with IEEE 1394 ports cannot reflect actual usage, so numbers for devices with only IEEE 1394 will be most useful. For now, I have only inserted notes on missing sources. I also have to provide some for my claims. ;-) --92.211.192.188 (talk) 01:41, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
