Which version of Firewire allows connection of up to 63 devices?

  1. FireWire 400

  2. FireWire 800

  3. FireWire S1600

  4. FireWire S3200

The correct answer is: FireWire 400

FireWire 400 is the correct version for connecting up to 63 devices. This is because FireWire 400, also known as IEEE 1394a, has a maximum data transfer rate of 400 Mbps, allowing for multiple devices to be connected and communicate with each other at high speeds. FireWire 800, also known as IEEE 1394b, has a maximum data transfer rate of 800 Mbps, but it can only support up to 16 devices. FireWire S1600 and FireWire S3200 are newer versions with even higher data transfer rates, but they are not commonly available and have not been widely adopted, making FireWire 400 the most suitable option for connecting multiple devices.
