IEEE 1394 and iLink are other names for fire wire and the speed allowed is 32 Gbps.
IEEE 1394 and i.LINK. Two other names for "Firewire" are IEEE 1394 and i.LINK.

firewire and the i.Link
The IEEE1394 standard can actually go by one of three names: # FireWire (Apple) # i.LINK (Sony) # Lynx (Texas Instruments) More information on this technology is available here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FireWire
IEEE 1394
There are several brand names, but the real name is IEEE 1394 interface.
The IEEE1394 communications standard was certified in 1995. Different companies have called different names (no not that sort of name) such as Firewire, iLink.
The maximum speed of USB2 at 480M/Sec is a little quicker than Firewire 400 (IEEE.1394a) which runs at 400 M/Sec (hence the "400" bit of the name). In tests, however, FireWire 400 delivers a higher sustained transfer speed. Benchmarks suggest that hard drives connected with FireWire will copy information considerably faster than they would using USB 2.0. To achieve higher performance, FireWire requires additional circuitry in supported devices. This often makes FireWire more expensive than USB 2.0. Firewire 800 (IEEE.1394b) as the names suggests, has a peak speed of almost 800 M/Sec. Used primarily by PC musicians for recording and transferring multichannel audio at high sample rates and for digital video cameras and decks

Today names for new elements are approved by IUPAC after consultation with many interested parties and taking into account the authors' proposal.
