What kind of Port is this? (MBP ‘08 edition)

I have an old Macbook Pro (summer 2008 edition)... 

Can anyone exactly identify what kind of connection this is?

And where I can get a male to male cord/adapter for this unrecognized port? 

Thank you.

FireWire-800.

The port to its left is FireWire-400.

The port to its right is (gigabit-capable)  Ethernet.

FireWire-800 provide a "near hard drive speed" connection for external FireWire devices, such as disk enclosures. It uses "balanced drivers and receivers" on a 9-pin connector to get its increased speed over FireWire-400.

FireWire 400 uses only 6 conductors, and some camera gear uses only four by ignoring the two power pins. All are freely convertible back-and-forth with only the simplest of adapter or 'stunt cables', such as 9-pin at one end, 6-pin at the other.

Its a Firewire 800 port, cables and adaptors are available from many computer stores and resellers online like Amazon:     Firewire 800 cable
