The OXFW911 (otherwise known as the Oxford 911 Bridge) is a high-performance FireWire (1394) to ATA/ATAPI (IDE) native bridge with an integrated target Serial Bus Protocol (SBP-2) controller. By supporting the SBP-2 protocol, the device can use generic SBP-2 drivers available in the Microsoft Windows 98SE, Microsoft Windows 2000, Microsoft Millennium and Apple Mac OS operating systems. Mac OS support also includes booting from Firewire disk.

The OXFW911 is suited for interface applications for removable-media drives, compact flash card readers, CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM and hard disk drives, allowing IDE drives to be connected to a 1394 serial bus in a plug-and-play fashion (see WFTD: Hot Swap).
