Unibrain produces 1394a cables in these formats:

Unibrain’s FireWire cables offer superior features, due to better connectors, shielding and storage conditions:

(*) Note: The 20m cable is suitable only for DV camcorders, which operate at speeds of S100 or S200 Mbps. However, for the new HDV (High Definition) camcorders the 10m cable is recommended as the maximum operating length.

A 6 pin to 4 pin converter is also available.

Exceeding the 4.5 meter cable length!

Unibrain firewire cables not only achieve a very controlled 110 Ohm impedance but also provide high performance for skew, attenuation and crosstalk. These latest features were not prerequisites when the first IEEE-1394/1395 specification was issued, at the time limiting the maximum cable length to 4.5 meters. 
Therefore we can now secure safe operation of our Firewire cable lengths up to 10 meters!
