Description
Expand your Thunderbolt 5-equipped Mac Studio with the power, speed, and connectivity of the xMac Studio/Echo II DV Thunderbolt 5 Pro Rackmount System from Sonnet. Built with a 3 RU form factor, this enclosure is able to house the Mac Studio and Echo II DV so your Mac Studio can overcome a lack of available PCIe slots. It provides dual PCIe 4.0 x16 slots, allowing users to simultaneously connect two full-height, full-length PCIe cards using two Thunderbolt 5 ports and two included Thunderbolt 5 cables. Each slot has its own Thunderbolt 5 controller, meaning each installed PCIe card has access to up to 6000 MB/s of bandwidth, rather than 6000 MB/s being shared between the two slots. All of this supports bandwidth-hungry, non-GPU I/O cards, such as DV I/O, NVMe SSD storage, and multiport 25Gb Ethernet adapters. Power is provided by an integrated 400W PSU with dual 75W auxiliary connectors and operations are kept cool using dual cooling fans. Please note that optical Thunderbolt cables are not supported.xMac Studio/Echo II DV Thunderbolt 5 This pro 3 RU rackmount enclosure with Thunderbolt to PCIe card expansion system for Mac Studio is ideal for the new M4 Pro and M4 Max models with Thunderbolt 5, integrating Echo II DV Thunderbolt 5 Module into the same rugged steel 3U rackmount enclosure.6000 MB/s Bandwidth to Two PCIe Cards Simultaneously Achieve maximum performance with Thunderbolt 5 by connecting Sonnet Thunderbolt to PCIe card systems to the powerful Mac Studio M4 Pro or M4 Max. Supercharge your computer's capabilities and your workflow through seamless expansion, broad PCIe card support, blazing speed, and pro-level efficiency.Thunderbolt 5 High Speed Connectivity Thunderbolt 5 takes external connectivity to new heights, delivering on the promise of next-level compatibility and performance. With up to 80 Gb/s of bi-directional data speed - twice as fast as Thunderbolt 4 - and up to 120 Gb/s for higher display bandwidth, you'll revolutionize your productivity. Whether you're working with advanced graphics, highly demanding 4K+ workflows, heavy data loads, or complex computing tasks, Thunderbolt 5 has the bandwidth to handle it all.6000 MB/s PCIe Bandwidth per Thunderbolt 5 Port The Mac Studio has multiple Thunderbolt 5 ports that are supported by separate 80 Gb/s Thunderbolt buses and provide up to 6000 MB/s of PCIe bandwidth through each, providing maximum performance when connected to Sonnet Echo II DV systems.Designed to Support Peak Thunderbolt 5 Performance from Two PCIe Cards Among multi-slot Thunderbolt to PCIe card expansion systems, Sonnet Echo II DV Thunderbolt 5 products are unique. Instead of using one Thunderbolt interface for two or three slots - which dynamically allocates the PCIe bandwidth between them - Echo II DV Thunderbolt 5 products include two PCIe card slots and employ one Thunderbolt interface per slot, resulting in each slot receiving Thunderbolt 5's full PCIe bandwidth. When connected to two Thunderbolt 5 ports on your computer, Echo II DV Thunderbolt 5 products exploit two cards' full potential performance, which is perfect for cards with high bandwidth requirement such as DV I/O, NVMe SSD storage, and multiport 25Gb Ethernet adapters.
