*** The T9 is now discontinued and has been replaced with the TDA7-9 FireWire-PCIe Adapter. Information is left below for historical purposes.
The Tableau Forensic FireWire Bridge (T9) is a portable write-blocker that enables forensic acquisition of FireWire800 and FireWire400 storage devices.
Note: The T9 does not come with any accessories (cables) or power supply when purchased as a stand-alone item, and therefore you will need your own cables and power supply to use the device. For this reason, we also offer a kit version of the T9 that does include the corresponding power supply and cables. See below for kit content details.
