About this product

01
OverviewWhat matters most about this product

<h4>Desktop 2-slot Dual Thunderbolt 5 Interface to PCIe Card Expansion System for Computers with Thunderbolt or USB4 Ports</h4><p><b>Run Two High-Bandwidth Cards at Full 6000 MB/s &ndash; Simultaneously</b><br />Are you a creative pro using one of the hot new laptops or mini desktops with ultra-high-performance Thunderbolt&trade; 5 ports in your workflow? Echo II DV T5 Desktop is designed to fully tap into that speed.

Instead of sharing bandwidth across slots it uses a dedicated Thunderbolt 5 interface for each slot delivering full PCIe bandwidth to both cards at the same time. For power-hungry cards Echo II DV T5 integrates a universal 400W power supply and includes dual 75W auxiliary power connectors (one for each card slot) for cards that require extra power including AJA Kona 5 Blackmagic DeckLink 8K Pro G2 (with main board [SDI ports] only) and Avid Pro Tools HDX.

Designed without a power switch Echo II DV T5 powers on and off automatically with the connected computer saving energy in the long run. We&rsquo;ve put together a compatibility list that identifies many cards conforming to Thunderbolt technology requirements and organized by fit and power compatibility with specific expansion systems.<br /><br /><b>Ultra-quiet Operation<br />Rated at 17dBA</b><br />Echo II DV T5 Desktop can be comfortably used in noise-sensitive environments.

Delivering ultra-quiet operation its dual Noctua fans operate at below the recommended 20dBA limit for recording and broadcast studios and spread their noise across a range of frequencies reducing the impact at any one frequency. Rugged. Because it automatically powers on and off with your computer there is no power switch on the enclosure ensuring you don&rsquo;t waste energy by forgetting to turn it off.<br /><br /><b>Thunderbolt 5 Cables and ThunderLoks Included</b><br />Sonnet includes two Thunderbolt cables engineered to deliver Thunderbolt 5&rsquo;s full bandwidth and power delivery performance.

The cables are fully compatible with Thunderbolt 5 4 and 3 and USB4 computers.

<br /><br />Sonnet Echo&trade; II DV T5 Desktop overcomes the no-slots limitation
This pro Thunderbolt 5 to PCIe card expansion system enables you to connect two full-length single-width PCIe cards to your computer each to a separate Thunderbolt port for maximum bandwidth to each card &mdash; it&rsquo;s the ultimate solution for connecting cards with high bandwidth requirements
<br /><br /><b>Dual Thunderbolt 5 Interfaces</b><br />&bull; Connect DV I/O or Other Bandwidth-hungry PCIe Cards<br />&bull; Dual Thunderbolt 5 Interfaces for Maximum Bandwidth<br />&bull; Full 6000 MB/s PCIe Bandwidth to Each Slot<br /><br /><b>Engineered to Support Maximum Performance from Two Cards</b><br />Two PCIe 4
Dual Thunderbolt 5 Interfaces for Double the Bandwidth
<br />Some of the latest computers - including MacBook Pro (M4 Pro/M4 Max) Mac mini (M4 Pro) Mac Studio (M3 Ultra/M4 Max) and select Windows PCs &mdash; offer multiple Thunderbolt 5 ports each with its own independent bus delivering 6000 MB/s of PCIe bandwidth
This means you can run two high-demand PCIe cards at full performance simultaneously &mdash; perfect for DV I/O ultra-fast NVMe storage and multi-port 10 and 25Gb Ethernet workflows
<br /><br /><b>Separate Thunderbolt 5 Interface for Each Card Slot</b><br />Echo II DV T5 provides full Thunderbolt PCIe bandwidth to each slot when connected to two computer Thunderbolt ports that also provide independent PCIe bandwidth &mdash; 6000 MB/s with Thunderbolt 5 computers and 2880 MB/s with Thunderbolt 4 3 and USB4 computers
<br /><br /><b>Dual Thunderbolt 5 Ports Connection Option for Maximum Performance</b><br />Connect Two DV I/O or Other High-bandwidth Cards Directly to Two Thunderbolt 5 Ports On Your Computer for Full 6000 MB/s PCIe Bandwidth to Each Card
<br /><br /><b>Single Thunderbolt Port Connection Option</b><br />Also Works with Computers with Only One Available Thunderbolt Port to Support Two Cards
<br /><br />Only One Available Thunderbolt Port?<br />Or Does Your Computer Only Have USB4 Ports?<br />Daisy Chain the Thunderbolt Interfaces to Connect Two PCIe Cards Via One Cable Because each PCIe card slot&rsquo;s Thunderbolt 5 interface includes two Thunderbolt ports you can connect the interfaces to each other to enable Echo II DV T5 Desktop to plug in to your computer with a single Thunderbolt cable
