IEEE 1394 is a standard name for FireWire. Like USB FireWire is also a communication port. It is faster than USB. But it is not widely used because all devices like keyboard, mouse, and others had been widely designed based on USB. However, USB has the problem of heating which may cause the circuit open. Firewire is a 6 pin port.
